Hello-my wife and I bought my son Sam a PRS Standard from Sweetwater Sound for his 16th birthday and a Jim Hendrix Wah Pedal. He's an excellent guitarist and was so excited. Just got it today. Problem is, the guitar has a very loud buzz, almost like electrical interference. I've plugged it in various amps, even my BOSE and it still buzzes, even changed buildings. It's on and off, mostly on. I've tried to isolate the buzz, eliminated bad cord possibilities etc, even disconnected his pedals (wah and effects) and it buzzes on and off. Played or when he just taps the body of the guitar. The wah makes the buzz even louder when he taps it. I've been playing a long time but I'm an acoustic guy. Any thoughts? Could it be a short in the guitar? I should mention, it doesn't buzz unless he plays the strings or moves or taps the guitar...thanks for your help,
Hey I also should mention, at one point, a radio station came in when he pushed the Wah pedal, no kidding...could use your help.
