so... i was thinking of putting this in the guitar section, but in a back and forth decision i went with the luthiers side.
ive learned how to and installed pickups on a few 'ukulele in the past few months, and part of the learning was soldering. so i got brave and attempted to install new pickups on my strat. the soldering seemed ok, but when i plug in, the g and b strings are both weak compared to the other strings. i know on an acoustic instrument with a ust a solution might be to even out the bottom of the saddle so it sits flat on the transducer. but on my guitar the pickups dont go through the bridge, they (from my limited knowledge) pick up vibration near the pickups. is there a simple remedy? could it be my soldering?
