Cameronj279 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Hi folks, Just picked up a new (to me) Sterling Stingray with Seymour Duncan pickup and looks to be a retrovibe 77 Preamp fitted. Plugged it in to play there and noticed it seems to pull through some radio type noise. I'm not a technical guy and most things I read online say it's likely needing shielded. Does anybody have much experience with this and does that seem the likely fix for it? I knew this could happen with single coils but didn't think it was much of a thing with humbuckers. Plugging in through a Quad Cortex, tried my ACG and 4 different guitars and all of them are silent so I would rule out the houses electrics. Attached a video to give an idea of what I mean.

tauzero Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago It would certainly be worth shielding it, both the control cavity and the pickup cavity. Quote
