• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

I finally got around to rewiring my Heritage last night, all was going good, nice clean soldering, everything checked out...until I soldered the switch ground. In 20+ years I have never had a switch short on me. It's the neck side at the ground connection. But, I see no runaway solder or anything that would actually cause the short.

My question is: Is rosin/flux conductive, all I see is a little rosin on the spacers...could that actually be shorting the neck contact?
