Please help: My guitar won't play in distortion?

Question

It was working fine and playing in distortion, but out of no where I'm guessing one of the pickups stopped working. And now even if I play with distortion, it will still sound clean.

It is not a problem with my amp, because I hooked it up to another guitar and it was okay.

Can someone tell me whats wrong with my guitar that won't distort?

Answer 1

I am having the same exact problem right now. I first thought that my amp was blown then went ahead and bought a new amp. Now I figure its my guitar. Does ANYONE know why I cannot play on distortion?

Answer 2

maybe your right about the pick ups but to be sure you have to take it in a shop to get it checked out. if the pick up is messed up then i feel sorry for you.

Answer 3

low volume setting on the guitar side will make it harder to distort
