    Yep, rub a dryer fabric softener sheet like Bounce, etc on the pickguard.

    Be sure you like the fragrance of the sheet before you stash it in the guitar case and snap the lid shut, though.

    Sounds like it's broken. You need to send it to me and I'll fix it for you. It may take a few years but eventually you'll get it back.

    Either that or a dryer sheet like the other guys said.
