Aharon Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I have an Epi Les PAul Standard with a DiMArzio X2N in the bridge and it's totally quiet,I mean dead quiet but whatever pickup I use for the neck has a buzz,I've had the original of course,a gibson and a GFS and they all have buzz when selected.......mothing major but annoying. I tried both wirings,independent volumes and the one that when in the middle either vol is a master with equal results. I'm at my wits end, I might just buy an EMG for the neck and be done but what's the possible cause?. Thanks for any help. Aharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your solder joints, or maybe a missing connection on the neck vol pot to ground. It's ain't a brand name of pickup problem!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aharon Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I meant EMGs as in active........that is if I can't troubleshoot the ground problem. Aharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
