Last week I was helping others with there wiring problems now I seem to have a problem with mine !!

 Soldered every thing up , plugged it in , turned up the volume and what a noise sounds like I've no grounds , touch any metal part and it stops , turn to full volume and all is quiet touch any metal part no noise all grounds are perfect , turn back to 3/4 volume , no grounds !! , put multi-meter on jack plug ground and tried all the grounds it reads 0.00 , only part that doesn't read 0.00 is where cap is soldered to tone pot lug it read 0.17 ? , made up a test lead plugged in to amp on 3/4 volume did the same clipped one end to jack ground and tried all the grounds again pots , string ground plate , strings , tuners , nothing changed still have to touch metal parts to stop it , all parts used are top grade full size pots and orange caps .
