370/12RM battery drain
Recently, the battery on my McGuinn keeps discharging although neither a cable is plugged in, nor the rotary switch is set on any of the "active" settings. Anyone has had the same problem?

Sounds like you've got some corrosion built up in it somewhere, making a circuit.

Yes. Check especially the jack fingers to make sure they are "breaking" open when you withdraw the cord.loverickbass wrote:Sounds like you've got some corrosion built up in it somewhere, making a circuit.

Yep. I had this problem too. It was the jack fingers touching.
