it could be a number of problems. The cord could have a short, but if you say the cord is fine, then it might be a short in the input jack. it usually cost about 10-15 bucks to have it rewired. that happened to my Gibson SG Standard. some other wiring problems could be the cause. I would suggest taking it to a local guitar repair shop. Most of the time, its nothing big and can be repaired for little cost.
