  • Duncan pickup booster broken?!?!

    Hey,

    So I have a SD pickup booster that's always worked great. I haven't used it in a bit and today, it appears to be broken.

    I get a normal signal going through it fine, but the channel that should be boosted is instead completely dead. I changed to a brand new battery and the same thing happened. Any advice?

    Thanks a TON,
    Jacob

    Does the switch feel any different? That's usually the first culprit.

        I can't say for sure if it's different, since I always just stepped on it, but it feels totally normal to me. What should I be looking for physically if the switch is bad, or is it an internal thing?
