similar happened to me on a saga... it could be that the ground from the pickup got switched( color wise) try switching the signal and the ground from the pickup you're having trouble with, it could be that. it worked for us...

it's not any one pickup, it's across the board

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

I was hoping someone could take a look at that and see if anything's wrong. It's my first attempt at a schematic, so I'm sorry if it's kind of messy and disorganized.

All the plans for kill switches I've found involve more complex little switches, but I don't see any reason why an old pickup switch couldn't be turned into a killswitch, seeing as half the time I turn down the volume on my neck pickup and use it as such anyway.

thanks for your help
