Just put this on the bareknuckle forums and didn't see anyharm in putting it on here aswell, thanks in advance if I get any answers![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Basicly I recently bought a used guitar, but the nailbomb was wired in wrong, all I have is the nailbomb in the bridge and the volume pot, I've attempted to fix it (Originaly all the wires were just on the volume pot, and it was coil split or something?
) I currently have the red directly on the pot, the green and white wrapped into each other, the others go to earth (I think), now to my eyes this seems right on the wiring diagrams I can find.
But to no avail, all though the pickup is meaty as hell, its still not go as much output as me or my guitar teacher expected and its buzzing, espicialy near electrics, which leads me to believe its still either split, or something I'm unsure of, such as it not been earther propely.
I have two types of buzzing, one is prominant and seems like an earth problem to me, where as in if I touch the jack it goes away but not if I touch the strings and the other gets extremely loud near electrics and such, all this and the pickup not been as high output as I expected currently lead me to believe somethings wrong.
Anyone have any ideas for whats going wrong here? I only want it wiring to the volume pot.
Cheers, Jim.
