This was so funny….well not at the time, but….
So it’s about 10:00 last night, I have the guitar all put back together, setup, playing great/sounding great….
And I flip the toggle to the neck pickup….and it sounds EXTREMELY BASSY!!! Like funky out of phase or something???
I turn the tone pot and it sounds like it’s getting brighter as I turn it down!! Drastic change in tone.
So I’m like, dammittt…got a bad pot or something it touching something it’s not supposed to….when I dropped the electronics earlier.
So I unscrew the toggle and pots, fish it around to look at the neck tone pot….
THERES A GOB OF POLISHING COMPOUND ON THE MIDDLE POLE OF THE POT TOUCHING GROUND!!!!
OMG. I felt like such a dummy. LOL 😆
