Hi Guys

I was hoping somebody could tell me what to do with the ground wire which has come loose in my ES 135.

The thin firm wire is in the bridge cavity and I tried a gentle pull and the bugger came loose and I have no Idea where it came from or how to fix it.

1) Do I run a new ground wire to some where? and attach it to something or somewhere?
2) leave it ..I dont need it?
3) other

Cheers guys

It grounds your bridge and strings. It went up through the wood and the bridge rested on it, making contact. You need to replace it, else you'll be posting one of those messages that "My guitar hums and makes noises that get better when I put my hand on the strings."

That may be a real trick.
