9v Batteries (When should I change it in an active guitar or bass?)

- When is your battery dead, or about to die? It's easy to tell with a multimeter - but don't be fooled that nearly 9v is good enough.....

Thank you! As someone who has only played with Passives for the better part of 25 years, I was incredibly confused when I opened the 9v compartment on a Schecter that I just bought and it didn't have a battery installed. I was able to play (I had to crank the volume, but it didn't sound awful) but I had assumed that no power meant no sound whatsoever. I ended up just getting a level for the Schecter at unity gain with a brand new Industrial 9V installed so if it drops below that, I'll know to change it.
Hi, thats not necessary, battery voltage falls faster in beginning and there after can stay f.ex on eight volts for many months, also it can increase a bit in voltage between gigs while it rests like with the one compared. You can play for 6month or even up to one year on one battery, of course it depends on how often and how long guitar is plugged in and how often you play. Usually your max volume and sound dynamics will start to fade, so that in the first song volume will be higher and after couple of songs you need to crank the amp up, some guitars start to produce high pitch noice, some start to distort the sound. Just keep extra battery on hands, you can of course check with voltmeter in couple of month or check it when you hear it in sound as a reference in future voltage controls.
Nice video straight to the point

Thanks a lot!!!
Hope you notice me because i'd soldered my negative wire because the stock solder is not good anyway i am using an acoustic electric guitar but my issue is that i'd accidetally torned off the trace connection to the positive wire after i'd remove the weak solder, my question is still can work if the trace thin tape is removed even my solder is good and my battery is working?
Thank you. Good advice.
I thought for most guitars, if you keep the amp. pedal or whatever plugged up to the guitar , the batt is draining whether if you have any switches clicked on or not, right?
yes
I’m having trouble with my bass
So I’m playing it on a guitar amp 20watts and I notice when I hit a string more then once it cuts in and out. Does this have to do with my amplifier or bass ?
