bassman Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 While I have read and researched quite a bit about pickup building I am not sure what tricks there are (besides proper sheilding) to building a passive jazz pickup that does not create hum. From what I gather if I wind two single coils, one bridge and one neck pickup- jazz style- and wire them to act as a humbucker that most interference will be avoided. However I would like to be able to pan between the two pickups without inviting unwanted hum into my signal chain. For my first pickup building project i would definitelt like to stay passive. Any suggstions or input on the subject would be much appreciated. pEace, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman Posted November 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 I guess what I am really looking for info is info on how to make a stacked jazz pickup that is not way too tall for a thin (~1.5") bass body. Peace, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
