Question: I think the output jack on my Stratocaster is messed up.  How do I inspect/fix it? I get a loud buzzing noise when I plug my Fender stratocaster into my Fender practice amp.  I think it has something to do with the jack.  How should I go about inspecting the jack and possibly fixing it?

Answer: First off try another lead. if not this tighten the nut on the jack on guitar. if not this a wire (earth) is broken inside the guitar. If its this take it to a workshop because if you hold a soldering iron on the wires too long the heat will travel up the wire and burn out the coils in the pickup
