Mondial, the squeal seems to have been some kind of atmospheric anomaly and disappeared the following day. It does appear though, I did use the wrong cleaner on the volume pot and it is performing badly, much worse than it was before the cleaning. Lots of crackle and distortion when I touch it. I guess rookie lesson learned. Now it looks like I'm going to have to source a new volume control. Back to the WTB forum I guess!
