MIM strat pickups, 3 way switch that goes B-BN-N, then a 2 way switch that turns on the middle pickup so it goes bm-all-nm
I am having a bitch of a time with the hum though, if i run it straight to amp it isn't bad, but throw a compressor and fuzz on it and it is terrible. When i touch the strings it does solve some of it though, would that mean the bridge cup needs better grounding?
