DIY on how to change the built-in rechargeable battery of Samson Expedition Express

 

Here's how to fix and swap the built-in rechargeable battery of your Samson Expedition Express. But first, you need to buy your replacement battery. I bought mine from Thomann. Kindly, check first if Thomann is able to deliver to your place before you order. 

Here's the link if you're interested to buy the replacement battery: https://www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_battery_12v_26ah.htm?partner_id=95373

It is a straight-forward swap. Just unscrew the back cover of your Samson Expedition Express and then be careful with the wires when lifting the cover. Then, there's a protective sheet that you need to remove and it is secured by 4 screws. A bit bigger from the ones the you've taken out. So you might swap screwdriver to remove these.

Then, the tricky bit is the battery itself. The good news is that it has a strap so you can pull it out. But just be gentle and careful because of the wire and there's like a sticky substance that they used. 

The polarity is colour-coded and there's a sticker so that you don't get confused about it and put the wires wrong way around. 

Last is to put things back together and cover it. Put back the screws as well and your Samson Expedition Express is as good as new again. 

Converted this Gear4Music Left-handed single cutaway electroacoustic to right-handed

 

My friend Bekka bought this lovely Gear4Music single cutaway electroacoustic which is left-handed because she wants to learn to play the guitar and she is left handed. But when it arrived, it took awhile for her to play it. Then after about a month, I asked her about her new guitar and if she has started to learn or play it. So I asked her to hold the guitar and we found out she was holding it the wrong way around. And then I told her, try and hold my guitar which is a right-handed guitar and yup, she feels more comfortable holding a right-handed guitar rather than left. So we decided to modify her guitar.

So this is just a quick fix, a hack if I might use the word.  What I did was remove the strings and then swapped it around. By the way, I used my spare Fender gauge 10 Phosphor Bronze. Then I turned the bridge saddle the other way around. And last but not the least, I filed the nut to accommodate strings number 6 and 5. I might add that I also clean the fretboard with my Dunlop Conditioner 02. Plus I sanded the frets because it was a bit sharp.  And that's it.  I can now also use Bekka's guitar. 

My thoughts on this electroacoustic guitar by Gear4Music is that it looks beautiful and it sounds beautiful. When I turned the bridge saddle around, I found out that there a pickup underneath it. The 4 band EQ consist of bass, mid, treble and presence. Then a volume knob and a battery check button. It doesnt come with a tuner. Good thing I got a clip on tuner from Lekato. The sound of the guitar when it's not plugged in is also pretty decent. It made a difference when I put on that Fender Phosphor Bronze acoustic strings. One of the downside is the action, it's a bit high. But if you know someone who can setup the guitar or pay a professional to setup the guitar, then this guitar got lots of potential. 

If you're looking to buy your first electroacoustic guitar that is affordable but sounded and looks great, I would definitely recommend this one.
