    Default who can fix a telecaster?

    do you know anyone who can sort out interference on a telecaster? theres a constant humming sound when plugged in (possibility of it not being grounded correctly). I do not want to try this myself as im not good with wiring.

    thanks

    Do you by any chance, use the guitar in a room with dimmer switches for the lights. I know that when I do, there is a hum/buzz, but it goes once the lights are switched off! Try it, it might save you the expense of a repair.

    It might be the earthing wire under the bridge plate, or maybe the pickup soldering. Does it matter where the selector switch is?
