  • Wiring question:
    I've wired up a strat copy, but the sound coming out when I plug it in is quite quiet. I can turn it up at the amp and it's loud enough, but if I touch the pickup against the string (the scratch plate is not yet fully screwed down) it sound is super loud, and I suspect, actually how it's meant to sound. Does this sound like an earthing problem? I have the ground going to the underside of the bridge (it's a hard tail), does that seem right?

  • Humbuckers or single coils? If you wire humbuckers incorrectly it can make the output quiet. Also, have you set the pickups to be the right distance from the strings?
