Logical Frank Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 OK--so I have this old Peavey Strat-o-thingy that I just redid. It works and sounds great but there's a little buzz. I went through it yesterday and double checked everything and all my connections (including the ground to the tremelo claw) are good. Anyway, there's a bit of buzz that's just loud enough to be annoying that I'm trying to get rid of (probably wouldn't care if I hadn't wired this myself). It's distincly different than the buzz from the single coils and goes away completely when I touch the strings (so that means the bridge ground is set up, right?). Is there anything else to check and what can I do that might help? I used this wiring diagram: http://static.zoovy.com/img/guitarelectron.../wdu_hss5l11_01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammoth guitars Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Properly grounded guitars on a high gain amp will usually cause hum when you are not touching the strings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logical Frank Posted August 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 The amp in question here is a Fender Champ, about as high-gain as a tree stump. I don't think it's anything other in my setup other than my guitar because other guitars in the same setup don't hum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
