Good idea on the cable. The pickups overcome the long cable capacitance issues.

Never noticed any hum on an EMG equipped guitar before.

I reckon it could be more a case of the input of the POD being designed to take a passive guitar. Then when you feed it with the active out from the EMG's on the Luke, it may be that the signal is a little 'hot' for it.

A longer cable may well help, as this will effectively attenuate some of the signal from the guitar. However, when you have the longer cable, it may well be more prone to interference...

I can really reccomend the cables by this guy although he's not the cheapest maker around.

Nice Brian May trivia on this site!

Hey guys, is any of you have experience a little hum sound on the Luke guitar? I bought my guitar in December and I really love it, its the perfect guitar for me, but it have this hum sound. It's not that big, but when im recording there is that start to make me mad. Do any one have experience this? If so, how can I repair it?
