Guitar Restoration Part 21
Hit a bit of a problem… The volume pot has a crackle and is shorting out, so need to pull the hardware off to locate and identify the issue. It will either be the ground loop, a faulty pot or wires.
Hopefully it's just re-soldering the earth ground loop wire, that will be simple. A faulty pot will take a little longer, but I have spares so it will be easy to fix.
Check out eBay and Amazon to find some cheap spare guitar parts. Seems to be the way to go these days.
