Back for a second 'go' at the Gretsch. Didn't like the understated Dingotone supposedly 'butterscotch' so decided I needed a green guitar in my collection. Gave her a six-coat paint finish then three coats of Tru Oil and finally some Dingotone wax. Looking good BUT when refitting the electronics, guess what - NO Sound. Did the usual checking all solders but suspect it may be a ground touching a live. If you've seen the wiring of the Gretsch, you'll understand it's a veritable minefield therein! Bit of a struggle each time to un-fit the wiring and re-fit (tubing and other tricks to help), but to no avail. Any ideas fellas?
