| My late '80'a Ovation Custom Balladeer is making lots of noise when plugged in. The battery is fine but it sounds like a tube going bad in a guitar amp- sputtering noises, sound fading in and out and crackles at the body input jack. I suppose I can get the jack replaced- what are the chances the onboard preamp died out? Any ideas what it costs to replace that? I'm not the original owner. |

Location: SoCal | I'd replace the jack first. Have somebody do it for about $30. I'd bet it'd solve your porblem. |

| Thanks for the suggestion. I've owned several vintage roundbacks and this is the first one I've ever had trouble with. Is this a common repair item for anyone else? |
