my guitar is constantly screaming through the speaker
So what the fuck is the problem? The battery to the pickup?

Re: my guitar is constantly screaming through the speaker
Most likely it is a wiring problem where somewhere the ground wire has loosen up. Or if your guitar is packed with active pops it could be the battery case wiring that has failed a bit. It can also be the cable, have tested with another cable?
If you have a tube amp it could also be a signal of the tube going down. But then it would so screaming even when the cable is not plugged into the speaker.

I tried with another guitar, and there was no problem. I'm so tired of all INSTRUMENT-prolems

That's how the beginning of Dead & Bloated by STP was recorded
I used to do that through my first two guitars (Heit Deluxe and a Washburn stratcopy of some sort) during crazy noise jam sessions when I lost myself in leads.
