  1. My bass players Fender Jazz bass likes to buzz along with the music. It does not seem to ba grounding issue, because when he puts his hands on the strings it stops. So I think it needs more shielding or something? Also, his pickups are active so I think that is playing a role also. Any thoughts?

  2. How do I go about measuring coil resistance? Also, the neck and middle pickups are both Dimarzio super II's and the bridge is a Dimarzio super distortion. I would think they all had similar characteristics, but ya' never know! Anyways, let me know how to measure coil resistance please! And thank you!

  3. I used the two old volume pots for the pre-existing pups, and one of the old tone pots for the new pup. I would imagine that the volume pots were 250k and the tone pot was 500k, and that is why I had the issues. when I turned the new pup pup pot down just a little, it shut the pup off entirely, and the original two pups got much louder. I just ordered 3 250k pots for the volumes and one 500k for the tone, and will hook it up with those when they come. That should solve the problem, if not.....?

  4. Hello,

    I just got this site reccomended to me by a pal over at Aron Nelsons stompbox forum. Anyway, i just addded a middle humbucker to an Ibanez CN250, which has two humbuckers already. So I wired up the third pickup with all 3 going to seperate vol. controls and one tone pot. The middle pickup seems to be sucking tone from the other two pickups, but when I turn it down the other two come to life. Any ideas on what is going wrong? Thanks!
