Pickup wire

Hi, hope your well. I installed a coil pickup in my cbg and while installations, I broke the black wire on the volume knob, I soldered it to the second and third post while I soldered the ground to the back of the pod, all I get is humming thru the amp. I have another one ordered but like to fix the one in the box, any suggestions, thank you, Happy Holiday.

  • Did it hum before the wire broke? Did you double check that you soldered the wire exactly to where it broke off from? Maybe a cold solder, have you scrutinized the solder joint? Maybe a pic of the pots & wiring will show something?

  • Hi Howard, I tried many times to post a diagram but I'm not clever enough. Hows this though?

    If its not correct the site is Guitar Electronic.com, it has all the diagrams.
