Majesty 2018 piezo switch reversed

[Rutles]

So I just bought used Music Man Majesty 2018 in arctic dream finish and it seems piezo switch is reversed. So when switch is in position 6 (pointing at me) magnetic pickups are on and in position 4 (pointing at neck) only piezo is on. Otherwise guitar is in great shape and plays like a dream, but this kinda bugs me. Is it difficult to fix or does it cost much?

I would try resetting the electronics, on the pre-2019 Majesty (aka v1 preamps) it is easy to do.

1) insert a 1/4" cable into the jack as if you are going to play
2) remove the batteries while leaving the cable in the jack
3) leave the guitar alone for 10 minutes (sometimes 5 minutes is enough)
4) remove the cable from the jack
5) install batteries
6) plug cable in and switch the piezo mode toggle between 4,5,6.
7) play!

If this doesn't work then I'd recommend giving EBMM Customer Service an email..

I tried, but didn't work. Is there a way to make sure reset was successful?

Have u tried opening the back cover and flipping the switch? Looks like it's just mounted the wrong way.

Yeah, but switch is mounted on a plate that fits only in one direction.

Does ist look somewhat like this: Piezo/Magnetic Selector 3-Way Toggle Switch for John Petrucci Guitar ?

Then it's probably just some soldering to swap the red and the black lead.

 

[Rutles]

Pretty much yeah. So should I just swap them?

Looks good. I'd try removing the plate with the switch... you should probably be able to remove the switch from the plate and turn it by 180° afterwards.
