Hi!
I've got a Ray25 that doesn't seem to be bucking my hum. I've got a consistent buzz, that is not related to touching strings, is boosted when I boost treble, and can be nullified if I stand at a very specific angle in my living room.
It happens constantly in our rehearsal studio too
I have:
Checked all grounding (a-ok)
Shielded control and pickup cavities
Checked battery etc etc
My thoughts are now that it is to do with the pickup. I tested both coils with the screwdriver on pole piece method - all good, so the coils themselves are fine.
Could a magnet be potentially flipped? I was looking into how to do this but only videos for guitar are on youtube. I also saw this video (
) and it looks like magnets for stingrays are glued, whereas on guitar videos they just slide in and out - so not sure what to do.
It's not an issue for live but I can't record like this...was considering taking it to a tech but the cost would probably be more than the pickup itself is worth.
Happy to provide any more info or pics etc.
Thanks for any help
