I once moved house and couldn't get a new 2x humbucker wiring loom on my bench to stop buzzing, then much later realised that due to less space in my new room I'd put my test amp right under the bench. Two feet away = no buzz. Glad to hear you're sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milod Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'll second that too... Here's another possibility too... I had an archtop that seemed to buzz no matter what. Oddly when I added a bit of felt to separate the pickguard from the bridge pup... voila! I know that sounds screwy, but... m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 single coils buzz....especially if on an electrical circuit w/any type ground loop, flourescent lighting, dimmer switches, etc etc etc. try a different electrical outlet, or purchase a "noise gate" unit to filter out the unwanted hum.

jimmi accardi Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Dimmer switches - turn all the way up or all the way down but not anywhere in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
