The mono jack on my Ultra II stopped working over the weekend, at least for the Nanomag pickup.

The regular humbuckers worked just fine, and the Nanomag worked ONLY if I plugged into the Nanomag input jack.

However, plugging into the regular mono jack? No Nanomag.

Thought it might be the battery, tried a fresh one, no Nanomag on the mono input jack.

Then yesterday, all was well..??? All input jacks worked as they should, fingers crossed they work again tonight when I get home.

Anybody else had this happen?

I don't have any experience with the guitar in question but do you think it might be possible there's a loose connection in there somewhere? Have you opened it up and checked it out?

in my experience epiphones are known for faulty wiring, so it well could be that you have a loose connection somewhere. Try to open it up and see if you have any loose wires.

oops, stevedave already suggested that, sorry.

Sounds like a connection problem with the mono jack somewhere between the jack and the nanomag circuit. Take it to where you bought it and have it fixed on warranty.
