AJ 18 CSE- dead electronics

Recommended Posts

Hello fellow guitar lovers,

I recently bought a used AJ 18 CSE NA in absolutely pristine condition, the exception being the Shadow Electar Epiphonic Six pre-amp/EQ system does not work.

I contacted Gibson, who referred me to the Shadow corp. and another independent after-market supply house.

No luck so far.

I was wondering of anyone else has had to replace this unit and has advice or a referral for me.

Thanks

Bobby

is this the one that recently ended on an auction on e-bay?

 

Does the undersaddle pickup plug in to the preamp with a small square plug or a mini-plug ?

 

If the Epiphone preamp is no longer available try measuring the dimensions of the preamp on the inside of the mounting frame.

 

Takamine makes several snap in preamps that might fit it. Depending on the dimensions and input jack.

 

You could also remove the preamp and try and find an electronics repairman who can diagnose the issue and maybe repair it for a minimal cost.

 

Just some suggestions.
