Hmm.. try to lower trebles - I have EMG's actives humbuckers and play through Death Metal pedal:-D But when i use distortion and get those trebles too high, even active humbuckers hum:-D Try to geek with the settings on amp and effect (or if you have built in distort - they suck most of the time:-D ) play with distorted channel knobs..

Don't worry my friend lots of strats have that same noise. IT is from single pickups. You must shield them - take them to the repair shop, and wax them or something if you have good pups. If not, try putting some hums and noiseless pups in there.

Another thing to try is moving where you play your guitar around the room - it will probably vary a lot depending on where you stand and what angle you are. Turn off any obvious sources of hum such as PC monitors.
If you play with this you may find you can get a decent humless sound without sacrificing the tone of your single coil pickups. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

That's typical issue with singles,no worries.
 Bad thing would be if you have same noise on clean sound,hope you don't tho. All you need is some NR and be sure not to stand too close to your amp,TV etc. -------------------- Youtube

QUOTE (Victor @ Jan 5 2008, 06:35 AM)  Also noice getting louder if I rotate my guitar in space. Nooo, that can't be true! Cos in space, noone can hear you play  That's the thing with single coils, they are noisy that way. You could get a noice gate of some sort, a pedal, to get rid of it. -------------------- My bands homepage

Maybe they carry electrical signals like television or something other... electrical signal = magnetic field = noise on your pickups! Just stay away from it

GEt those noisless pickups, they are quality ones and they do have a bell like tone just like regular ones. They don't have exactly the sound like yours, but you will get used too them. There are several different noisless single pups, available from SD and DImarzio as well. Find what best suits for you on their sites.
