Hi guys, I know "humbuckers that hum" is quite a popular topic but I couldnīt find any thread that matched my problem.
I have a new SD TB-11 Custom Custom in my guitar which produces quite some hum if the volume is turned all the way up but the strings are blocked. Kind of like if you grap a guitar cable jack.
When I play the noise seems to disappear (or I donīt hear it anymore) and it doesnīt get any different if I touch the strings or pots or whatever. It is just a constant noise if I turn the volume up and donīt hit a note.
I double checked all the wiring and grounding. Guitar is shielded properly as far as I can tell. I tried some other guitars and other amps. Other guitars produced also a little noise but with the CC it was the loudest.
Is this an internal error in the pickup? Or is the CC by nature a noisy pickup? Would be great to know because if something is wrong with the pickup itīs going back.
Thanks!
