The guitar's owner has been playing and collecting guitars for a good few years, so should be aware of the problems mentioned by both of you in the above posts, but I will check with him regarding extension leads, amps., etc. In this case I know the jack on the guitar is O.K., as iI checked it when carrying out the repair. The pickup earthing will be checked when next I see him, so it seems there are several possibilities, some of which hadn't occurred to me (I'm not a musician) to consider before thinking of rebuilding the controls on a metal 'chassis'
