there should continuity and low ohms (<1?) between strings and the Sleeve of jack socket. Correct?
if open circuit or high ohms (>100?) then problem is somewhere between bridge and jack.
And my thought is that sleeve of jack socket is easiest access by using the other end of a TRS cable plugged into the jack socket. Or is the jack socket plate connected to sleeve Even easier?

The wire is in the cavity, I'll undi the bridge and hopefully reattach it.
Forum wins again.
The individual saddles are highly resistive preventing continuity.
Ground wire conductive to steel insert fixed in body.
Threaded Bridge Post is conductive to steel insert when screwed in.
Tonepros bridge is conductive to bridge post when placed on posts.
Bridge conducts to ground.
but
Each saddle in the bridge is not conductive to the bridge. So the string cannot ground through the saddle to the bridge. The little threaded stud each saddle runs on (intonation adjust) are conductive. The connection is breaking between the saddle, their stud and the bridge. But its all feckin steel so what the actual feck?
Any help?
Is this a known Tonepros thing? Ive never owned one.
If you can’t get to the bottom of it, replacing the bridge with one with definitely conductive saddles might be the only option.
