  1. I dont have metal knobs, one day i might (if they ever arrive) do you suggest grounding the Pot casing?, Also my Pup selector switch Is grounded Ill work on getting a 0.1uF 450v Cap from my electronics teacher
  2. Same pop as when i touch any metal component of the guitar thats earthed, its defiantly an electrical pop, not using any reverb at all
  3. Well, Grounding the bridge helped alittle, Alought it pops when i touch the strings (No Shock), Which gets rather annoying
  4. Ahh i see, it works by when i touch the strings it grounds though me as well?, is there anyway i can get it to be silent with out touching the strings?
  5. The bridge is indeed not grounded, will it help if it is?, i personally cannot see how Alittle explination? i tryed sheilding the Control Cavity, didnt change much (Btw, the pickups are sweet, nice and meaty i say!)
  6. Ive just finished up my guitar, Mightymight Humbuckers (Motherbuckers) There wired up fine, make all the right noise, apart from one, a constant buzz, which goes away when i touch any grounded metal component Ive spent ages checking the grounding makeing sure they all ground and they do, (I soldered all the grounds to a Tone pot, then grounded the pot) It all earths and ive checked it by using a circuit tester from the tone pot, to the other end of the cable earth Seems to me that its not grounding right, but grounds perfectly fine through me when i touch it Defiantly isnt the amp, ive tested it on 4 differnt amps, the Jack wireing is the correct way round also Ive been reading this up on the internet for an age and to no result too, i really want to get using my new guitar for my GCSE music work Please help
