It’s a pretty common problem with plastic/nylon/pvc/ect pickguards. That’s why you’ll see that most of them have foil on the back side. The foil allows the static that builds up in the pickguard to bleed to ground via the pots.

I learned something today!
Thanks @Korrigan !

So now i guess i need to buy a new picguard. How can i know which to buy?

How about a nice non-static-producing birdseye maple?
