Hi there!
Recently i bought a used guitar (can be seen here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...howtopic=30992). It sounds good, and is well crafted. But when playing above certain volume levels the pickups have an extreme feedback. I talked about it with the local guitar dealer and he said the pickups could be "microphonic". I did a bit of research and found two possible fixes: 1. Buy new pickups. Since its a realy cheap guitar, i dont want to spend much on pickups... 2. "Repotting" the pickups like described here: http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/dip.htm I am pretty sure the pickups are microphonic as i can here my voice through the amp when turning up the volume and speaking/humming into the pickup. Please help! Thank you in advance!
