magforce68 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Hi, I recently bought a used JTV-69S off Ebay. It seems to be in good condition, bit the magnetic miks hum like there is no tomorrow. When I remived the backplate there is no ground wire attached to the tremolo claw. Where should it be soldered? Does anyone have a picture of the back cavity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 It may have single coils and look like a Strat, but there's a whole lot more going on under the hood than usual, and everything in there is self contained. I assume that everything is grounded somewhere, but wherever it is, it ain't the trem claw. Those pickups are just super noisy...mine are too... but I bought it for the modeling, so it doesn't much matter. If I want a Strat, there are two sitting right next to the JTV. If its driving you that nuts, look into a noiseless option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
