Bridge pickup gets really weak while the neck is fine. Toggle issue?


Recommended Posts

When I play my Les Paul, the neck pickup has full signal, but when I go to the bridge, the signal gets really weak, another issue is when I turn down the bridge pickup and the neck is full on, When I go to the bridge to kill the sound, I can still hear signal from the neck, could it be a toggle switch issue? Or do I need to get new pickups?

Hmm...I doubt if you need new pickups.  What model/type of LP is it?

From what you write it sounds like the wiring;  of course the bridge pickup invariably does sound a bit weaker than the neck due to the position of the latter.

But you say 'signal gets really weak' so I am guessing it's wired wrongly and out of phase.

The best thing to do would be to take it to someone who knows but....that will cost.

Let us know how you get on!

Best wishes.
