Loose shaft on pot
« on: August 24, 2023, 03:48:02 pm »
My push pull volume pot shaft is loose and it shorts out, so I have to play with it for a full signal. Is it just a tightening thing. More or less new, 18 months old Michael Kelly tele.

Most likely need a new pot.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
