Volume pot problem
The bridge pup on my Wildkat stopped working, so I pulled the pot out to check it. Meter readings seemed to indicate something wrong with the pot, so I ordered a CTS replacement and installed it; I did check it with the meter before installing and it read fine. In the guitar, however, I only get sound with the pot at just about the middle position - say from 4-6. Outside that range it is dead, and even in that range the sound cuts in and out. The only wiring glitch that I can think of is that I wired the input from the pup to the wrong lug, but would that cause a problem like this? Or did I get a bad replacement pot?
Thanks guys!
