    Help! There is a creature living in my Beatles Guitar!! :(

    I dont know what is going on with the new guitar I bought but it makes a funny noise like there are little feet running around on the inside of the guitar. I didnt notice this the first day I used it but when I picked it up to play last night it totally freaked me out when I heard it. I am 110% sure we dont have roaches, ants, spiders, or any insects or rodents in our home because we get it sprayed every few months to be sure of that. The thing is I hear the noise not just when I am moving the guitar but sometimes when its stationary. Should I take it back? Its the Gretch guitar by the way. Is this something all RB guitars do, this is my first RB guitar.

    This is pretty funny. If you're curious, see if you can open it up without voiding the warranty, then return it afterwards.

    I know I'm curious, so please reply if you find out what's in there, if anything.

    It's probably part of the guitar, but if it really does make a noise when it's stationary, you might want to check.

    My Höfner does this too, but I have no idea why.

    Some tilt sensors are louder than others, my guess is that's what you,re hearing.

    My RB2 Strat does that. Randomly makes a noise and I can feel something moving around in there. It's done that since day one and it still does now.

    It's probably just the tilt-sensor to activate Star Power/Overdrive/Beatlemania that you guys are hearing.
