Not bad thought, as I've gotten lost in the wire maze and mixed one up on

the wires before I pull 'em so I don't think that's the problem.
Thanks anyway.

This is just an idea , but I know that sometimes it can happen .
Is there a possibility that you may have one of the wires crossed ?
Only thing is is that I think it would sound crappy all thetime .
