I recently purchased a 08 Deluxe Powerhouse Strat and have a question. the battery cover on the guitar has a LED light, should that be on when the guitar is plugged in or is it a battery life indicator?

Good question! I've never seen the light come on either. I know that everything is working fine on my Powerhouse so I am going to assume it is a low battery indicator. Maybe someone who knows for certain will chime in here.

The VG Strat had a battery light indicator

I had same question when I got mine and read somewhere that the light just came on for a few seconds when you put the battery in and that was it.

From what I read, the secret to long battery life is to NOT leave the guitar plugged in when not playing. The output jack is stereo and leaving the cord plugged in completes the circuit and can eventually drain the battery.

My cheapie dollar store 9v has been good for over a year so far, but will probably swap it out soon.
