| A question about active pickups |
|
After a long, long wait I finally got my Schecter Stiletto Exotic. Will the battery drain if I leave it plugged in at the guitar end, but unplugged at the other end? What about if I leave it plugged in to something that is turned off?

| 1. The jack in the guitar is what turns on the juice. |
|
I hate active guitars for that reason (battery issues).

ya think they'd be nice and give you a switch for that or something. Oh well. Maybe I can get one installed.

| 3. Personally, I would rather unplug than make a new hole... |

The jack IS the switch.
I have only ever bought one active guitar (i loved the neck)... I gutted it and made it passive.

| 4. Yea, I just did a search on battery life |
|
Installing a bypass would definitely be more trouble than it's worth.
