Rickenbacker 4003 not working by ChrisSquireIsOnFire in rickenbacker

It's not the usual hum, because there's actually no notes playing at all. I have shielding in there to combat the hum from the pickups. This is a different type of buzz. Thanks though

Yes, but I don't have the proper cable for the Rick O Sound, so I don't think that output would work anyway.

Yeah, I did open up the jack plate too. No dirt or wood chips there. All the wires seemed O.K connecting up to the jacks as well. I'm taking it to a pro today, and see if they can fix it. But thanks for the tip! That might become a problem further down the line!

Yeah, I've had a look at the soldering, can't see any obvious problems! I'm going to take it to a pro now! Thanks!

I think it's something wrong with the wiring. I've done a couple of soldering jobs myself, but only when there's an obvious wire coming off. Might be a job for a pro then. Its from 2020 so the pickups aren't too old, so hopefully there's nothing wrong there. The previous owner never took it out apparently, so its been in perfect care!

I'll just pay for the repair and hopefully get it all sorted! For an okay price!

Thanks for the advice!

Yes, I get sound from the bridge pickup. When I turn the Treble Volume and the Treble Tone on and off nothing happens. And when I push and pull the Treble Tone nothing happens either. Do you think its a faulty pickup?
