Hi all,
So I recently built a stingray clone and used a single Aguilar 4M pickup and an Aguilar OBP-3. Wired it up about a week ago, all looked good, and so plugged it straight into my amp and got no audible output at all. Then after a while I plugged it back in through my compressor and used it to boost the signal and then I can get something out of it, the only problem is all the buzzing I get from boosting it so much. I figured the volume pot might be the issue so I bypassed that, and had no luck same situation. The amp and the cord both work great on my other bass, the pickup is very close to the strings right now. I really don't know where to troubleshoot this further. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear
