I just rewired my guitar, but I guess I messed up in one of the connections.
The symptoms:
Noise unless touching strings, or other metal part to ground it.
Very low signal. ie can only be heard through distortion - sounds like the volume is almost all the way down
All my pots and switches work properly aside from this loss in volume
What's the cause of this? What should I be looking for?
I had this happen on a lot on one of my first guitars, but I don't really remember what the problem ended up being.
I'm guessing one of my connections is loose/not complete, does this sound like a reasonable guess?
Sorry to bother everyone with this
