Throbaks are hard to beat and they are a Forum Sponsor. Click on the icon at the bottom of this page and check out all of their alternatives. They rock.:dude:

it's a pot or a solder connection or but not likely a bad cap. take it to a tech if you are unable to troubleshoot it yourself. Never heard a pickup crackle.

If you bought it new or from a store, it would be a warranty issue.
