I've got a few wiring issues with the Strat I built. It's been perfect for over a year now, but I had to replace the output jack and now I'm getting (I think) grounding issues and now the Humbucker on my HSS (already wired) strat plate no longer seems to output.
It buzzes heavily when I touch the strings, and is fine when I touch the jack/metal cable casing on the output wire. I'm thinking this is a problem with solder connection between the wire leading to the tremolo claw and the claw itself. I've soldered, and soldered again, stripped back the rubber outer for a clean bit of wire and tried again but to no avail.
Also, it heavily buzzes when the vol knob is below 10...Not really sure why, because I bought the electrics pre-wired, so all I did was wire the claw and output jack up...
