Hi all, new to the forum and trying to find my way around! Nice to be here and looking forward to some chatting about guitars.
I have purchased a 2008 UES130 which is great, polished it up and restrung it and playing acoustically it sounds great! Unfortunately when I plugged it in today there's a hum through the amp. It will ground if I touch a ground like the metal plug on the cable or the shielded pickup wire through the f hole, so its suggestive of a ground touching something it shouldn't.
Any ideas on where to start looking/troubleshooting so I don't start pulling the whole thing out unnecessarily!
Thank you so much,
Al
