    My guitar has gone nuts? Need help!

    Unfortunately the "fix" was short lived. After I reassembled the guitar the problem came right back. I soldered in a brand new 3-way switch and the problem is still there. I tried other stuff and nothing seems to fix this guitars problem. SO I decided to do a complete rewire. I have on order...

    My guitar has gone nuts? Need help!

    After further testing I discovered that this only occurs on distortion channel. If I use the clean channel the guitar behaves normally?!
