Hi guys, my jp6 has had this issue for awhile, piezo starts off strong and then gets quieter over about 30 minutes until it's quiet and very thin sounding, like a plink plink sound instead of the full acoustic sound. Tried batteries, 4 brand new ones. Still passes magnetic sound throughout both outputs, and of course not through the stereo out when the battery is out. Any ideas?
 
Very odd- I would have thought battery as well, or the connectors in the battery compartment.

I'd suggest you give customer service a call- this is a job for them.
 
Yeah, definitely time for CS. They know those preamps better than anyone. They should be able to help you troubleshoot it in no time.
