Hi guys!

My friend has a Squier Telecaster signature model that I'm borrowing for a while.
It's a fine guitar and I like it a lot!
But, when I tried it today, I turned the volume pots all the way down. So, normally, there shouldn't be anymore noise coming out of my amp.
But, even with the volume on the guitar turned all the way down, I still have some noise, although a lot less.
This happens with both of the pickups.

What's the problem here? And how can it be fixed?

Maarten
