Re: OT Ebow casing degradation



I haven't had that happen either, had mine since 1991... the only thing I've ever needed to do to it is replace the battery terminals. Sounds like battery seepage.

Mike,

Gosh, that's a new one on me, and I've owned 3 (bought the first one in
1980 direct from the manufacturer).

Never had anything of the sort happen to any of them.

If you find out let us know.

Ted

Swapped it out and it works, it just mucked up my hands. I'll need to do
some epoxying as well. I believe the switch got bumped to the "on" position
in storage.

Anyone else have this happen? Off gassing from the battery?
