I've a CC44S-5 electroacoustic which isn't being very electro at the moment. If I plug it into an amp, there is no signal unless I press the Tuner button, then there's plenty but after less than a minute, the signal stops again. It doesn't seem to be a battery issue as I've tried several and I get full sound every time I press the Tuner button... but only for a few seconds! Any info on this would be appreciated (even if I'm gently directed to a big 'On' switch I hadn't previously noticed). ncs Posted 2011-12-01 5:53 AM (#403 - in reply to #402) Subject: Re: Amp problem with Ovation CC44S-5 Joined: December 2011 Posts: 3 Answered my own question... I noticed I was using a stereo jack; replaced with a mono jack and lovely sound ensued. Still don't know why pressing the tuner button worked but maybe some battery saver process was kicking in when one stereo half was dead? stepchildusmc Posted 2011-12-01 6:23 AM (#404 - in reply to #402) Subject: Re: Amp problem with Ovation CC44S-5 Joined: September 2011 Posts: 108 Location: eastern united states very glad i could be of some help ncs. ncs Posted 2011-12-01 7:17 AM (#405 - in reply to #402) Subject: Re: Amp problem with Ovation CC44S-5 Joined: December 2011 Posts: 3 :-D
