Most likely situation is a loose ground wire/bad solder point for ground. If all grounds are good, could be bad pick-up. If it does it with all pick-ups, it is almost surely a bad ground at some point.
If you look in the back access area for the electronics and see a wire that is not hooked up, there you go. If you do not know how to check the wiring, then a tech would be in order.
Good luck!

Yeah definitely a ground issue. It might not even be a loose wire but a cold joint. Re-solder the ground joint and you should be good to go.

I just had a new pickupswitch installed in my guitar, the guitartech did a ***ty job, so i'm going back tomorrow! It's amazing what these guitar techs miss at times. I remember when a friend of mine had his L6S rewired. He was looking so forward to plugging in and playing. There was no sound. I looked at the wiring and noticed one of the non-ground wires was touching the hardware on the jack. I put a piece of electrical tape between this wire and the jack and there was sound! |
