thx for the input- but i cannot see anything wrong with it, I have (i remember now) resoldered ALL the connections and checked the terminals .I'm more familiar with Fender type switches but can usually see if their ok,oh well . I may try that.

The Lp copy I rewired has NO problems whatever,so i may swap out bits and completely rewire the [bleep].

Just want to say love the username...
RHCP fan? - I think John F. is well talented,btw.
