I have a Traditional.
My Neck pup is super dark, and seems to be getting worse.
Also, I was getting more buzz, even more than my Tele..
So...
I dropped the pup.
Raised the poles. No difference.
Still super muddy. And I mean dark mush. Not useable.
Then checked the pots.
300k. Doh.
So replaced them with CTS 500 k.
No difference.
Then i did 50's wiring.
Not better at all.
Infact the buzzing seems to be getting worse.
The only way to help with the buzz is to actually put my fingers directly on the pups.
Usually resting my hand on the bridge or strings is enough. Not now.
So...do you think the neck pup is dying? F'd up?
Never experienced this before.
Before I doll out $$ for new pups, thought I had better check with the experience in the forum.
Thanks Folks.
