I mucked around with the amp settings and that did the trick!...somewhat. I now have "Treble" at around 5 or 6 and "Bass" at 4 or 5. Maybe that's why the '62 Strat and '65 Twin are so compatible, because the Midrange plays a factor in the sound...Ric-O-Buc wrote:My advice is to experiment with the settings on your amp - ie: don't have the treble wide open.... there's a trade off between noise and tone. also - ride the volume on your guitar between rhythm and lead tones.... my strat will howl at rhythm volumes and high volume settings on the guitar - but I can still get usable sounds by allowing for the gain by adjusting my volume on the fly.

Semi-unrelated (meaning, half-related?) but do Ric pick-ups hum slightly?
My 360's bridge pick-ups seems to produce some very soft humming by its own - is that normal?
I don't mind, but my Paul Gilbert Ibanez slinging teacher did, I think...

Re: How to cancel hum?
I don't detect any hum from my 325's bridge position.
The best way to eliminate hum on a Strat? Put the switch in the bridge/middle position...that's where the tone is! Set it and forget it!

Like all single coil pickups they will buzz some.Wildberry wrote:Semi-unrelated (meaning, half-related?) but do Ric pick-ups hum slightly?

I know, but still, but then... does't bother me. And it doesn't keep my teacher from playing Van Halen on the 360jps wrote:Like all single coil pickups they will buzz some.Wildberry wrote:Semi-unrelated (meaning, half-related?) but do Ric pick-ups hum slightly?

I'd love for RIC to come out with a "Toasterbucker," but that and...
