So been mucking with this for over a week now and after two rewires maybe the neck pickup. Pulled the pickup out and split the coils at the lead . one coil 4kohm the other dead short( spec'd 7.9k total) using a fluke. Weirdly everytime I tested the guitar was using gain channel and neck position was emitting about half volume and tinny but today tried on clean and nothing, back to gain tinny half volume. Perplexed to say the least. Was almost an entry for SGOTM last night. Thinking might need a new pickup?
It's a TR Rocksong in the neck as well? So, one coil is giving you 4K and the other seems faulty. When you say the coil is 'dead short' is it shorting itself (no resistance) or dead (no conductivity at all)?
Hi Scott , Yes is a TR rocksong, coil has a circuit but no resistance 0 ohms on 200ohm scale. So it had a circuit through both coils at a total of 4K . Would it have been like a low resistance single coil ?
The only mod from standard wiring is fidelity upgrade.
