Hi, my first post here, although I will be posting some pics of my build soon
I have just about completed building a TL kit and have a strange problem with the electronics. Everything works, however have 2 things happening that seem strange to me.
1. When volume is on full or off completely the guitar is silent, ie no background hum, which is good. When volume is in the middle though there is a significant hum. So when turning the volume knob from 0, hum increases as volume increases, until it reaches the middle when it then start decreasing and is gone when it reached full
2. There is no hum when selector switch is in the middle, however slight hum when in either bridge or neck pickup position
This hum is a much lower hum than in 1. above.
So overall best situation is with volume on full and switch in the middle, guitar is then almost completely silent
Any idea what might cause this?
I shielded all the cavities and be the pick guard with aluminium tape, and connected them and tested all over for continuity with a multimeter, so think my shielding is pretty good
Thanks
