Yeah, the battery situation has been a damper for me too. I use rechargeables and found out that they lose about 5% of their capacity each day sitting around. So, you just have to be diligent in making sure you have fresh batteries or recharged ones plus backups. Don't leave the battery pack in while it's not being played either. One thing that I've found is when the batteries go dead, this is one nice sounding American Strat. I think I'll be playing this one more now that I understand what's going on with the batteries - though I wish there was a better solution.
