| How hard is it really to replace a jazz pickup in my Charvel 3b bass? It's passive, so I'm thinking there's just a little sodering involved. I can't stand the humming anymore!!!!!! Help!!!!! |

brother go to guitarelectronics.com or to the seymour duncan website and print out the schematic for jazz pickups then get a 25 to 30 watt soldering iron and some 60/40 .031 solder.practice a little with the soldering -just hit the solder and iron tip on the pot and jack connections to spread that sugarlove heat and let it spread and you're done bingo.

The hum is because it is a single coil pickup. It is part of the fun. My Rickenbacker 4001 hums all the time that is what they are suppose to do.
