pick up trouble

[timmymac]

I have a LVO9 about six years old now and I have lr braggs pickup. My problem was the sound was cutting out when plugged in. So I installed a new input jack and it is still not picking up. I took it to my guitar guy and he took the pickup out and cleaned it and here is the weird part when I strum the guitar laying down it works and when I turn it up side down it works but when I Play it up right there is no sound I play left handed my guy says I may need a new pickup Im thinking there has to be something else any suggestions. Thanks Tim

It sounds as if there is either a short in the wire's or if the pu has a built in pre amp there my be a cold solder that when lying flat its making contact and once you put it in playing position its moving.Did you buy it new?Did you mail in the warranty card?Baggs is really good about there customer service,maybe your tech can contact them as they may be able to help.

this may seem silly, but did you check the cable?

I bought the guitar new and I dont think I sent the warranty card in I checked the cable many times I like the idea of the solder that may be it. thanks.I will contact Braggs to see what they can do.
