Dirty contacts in the switch or bad wiring, poor solder. I have a new Lester that the amended with its own wiring gremlins that still can't be sorted out.

I guess I'll have to send it back to musiciansfriend.com. I hope It does not take long for them to repair it.

A dry solder problem with the two s/coils pups. Mine went back 2 weeks later with exactly the same problem. TBH NOT what I was expecting from such an expensive piece of equipment from the US. :o
Though I did get it back 2 days later, delivered personally by the Fender tech.
He only lived in the next street from me. Sweet.... :)
I even got an invite to his workshop and was surprised at what he had to repair under warranty. I mean his pretty large workshop was stacked with stuff and a lot of of it was from two big companys.
Shows the big names are not as reliable as they say they are.

mt ed, that is exactly why I bought a fender strat. It came so highly recommedned from lots of guitarist I spoke to. And yes, you wouldn't think that something so expensive would have problems just 5 months after being purchased.
