Problems with no/low output form Neck pickup of an Indus
Posted: 22 Aug 2009 01:50
Hi,I'm having some problems with the Neck pickup in my Excalibur Indus and just wondering what it could be.. same DiMarzio PAF's it was delivered with and had it about 3 years.Position 1 Humbucker in neck position2 Single-coil in neck position3 Single-coil in neck & bridge position4 Single-coil in bridge position5 Humbucker in bridge position5,4 and 3 work, but not 1 and 2.I get a buzzing sound like if the guitar cord isn't properly connected or there's an open circuit.Since there's no problem with 3, I'm wondering if the Schaller switch is damaged?I guess it couldn't be anything wrong with the actual neck pup, since I do get output from it with 3 (get about the same output tapping on it as I do with the bridge pickup)?Volume and tone pots work fine.Here's a couple of pics if you can see anything from them:If it is the Schaller, would I be ok just replacing it with a Schaller Megaswitch 'E' model and wire it up the same way?Thanks for any help,Bjorn
