i have a few electric guitars and i am not playing live like for 8-9 years now. so the guitars lived in my recording studio all the time. they got used for recording. a few more than others.
now 3 guitars have developed pickup selector malfunctions: some pickups don‘t make sound when selected. contact spray only helps for a few days than they return to not working like before.
the 3 guitars are a danelectro, a hagstrom and a gretsch. so various quality guitars. so it‘s not just down to cheap quality parts.
but others don‘t suffer from the problem: a rickenbacker, a cheap bass, my fender tele, a old no name guitar from the 60‘s ...
is it my studio climate? it stays rather even all year long. 20-22 celsius, humidity changes a bit in the summer, from 60-75 degrees.
is that the problem?
