Could someone please list most of the grounding problems you get when wiring a guitar, as my guitar functionally works ok, but i just get this constant humming and buzzing. I'm just trying to eliminate any errors that i might have made. Thanks
At the moment my pickups, pots and switch work fine, but i've experimented with the grounding, as many other ways didn't work. I've sheilded the cavity with copper tape, made a solder lug on the sheild, took a ground from the bridge and the output jack and joined them at this lug, then took a wire from my central ground on the back of the vol pot and connected that to the lug. Can this physically work?
it all sounds good to me
we are talking about humbuckers, not single coil pickups, right?
also, you are not too near to a computer monitor, are you?
does the hum change dramatically with the change in orientation of the guitar? like you hold it with the pickups facing the ceiling? or the floor? or the left wall? or the right? or the front? or the back?
does it hum under low gain? or only high gain? ... are you using shielded cables?
do other guitars hum/buzz in the same amp? ... does this guitar hum/buzz in other amps?
just some ideas to get you going on diagnosing the source / cure
good luck
