Got it brand new (2019) from CME, worked great but arrived with a slightly loose neck pickup tone or volume control (I forget because the guitar is out for repair.)
A week ago It developed the strangest problem, I would have a static fuzz- in the background of the low E A D and sometimes G string on the neck pickup only.
According to the hang tags it has unpotted custombuckers.....
The tech is Gibson certified and a nice guy, him and his electronics friend couldn’t replicate the issue. I had tried the guitar into different amps with different cables. Same noise on neck pickup only.
He is going to shield the control covers and I’ll take the guitar back and see if it was some fluke thing or maybe happens in my temp/humidity controlled basement. He suggested I try going up a level on the house to make sure it’s not the outlets.
i just can’t figure out why it’s only 3-4 string and a static noise when played on the neck pickup, it seems to be a very specific problem.
Any ideas? Thanks
