..but it's not the kind you're thinking!;)
Although my Sport conforms to the schemo you sent, I still have that little problem:

Bridge:quiet
B&N: noisier
Neck: noisiest

Is this normal? How about you other EBMM sportsters: ever notice this?

BTW, battery is new and Duracell.

:confused:
 
My Axis when on the clean channel of my Marshall TSL60 is completely silent.
 
Odd- sounds like something is up with your neck pickup. Shielding wire not properly connected? Wired up incorrectly?

This is a sport that has the silent circuit? You could try tuning it (via the set screw) to see if you can adjust the hum.
 
Anthony- I'm in the UK until Tuesday night so cell is a bit spotty. Give me a call on Wed! I'll be back in the office. Same cell #.
 
Nope, I've not had this problem.

You mention a battery, so I'm guessing the sport in question has a piezo. Do you get this buzz with both output jacks?

But Elif, I'm talking about a sport w/MM90's-they all have batteries (regardless of piezo). It's used in the "silent circuit".

Oop, my mistake. I assumed you were talking about humbuckers since that's what you have in your picture, and your initial post had no mention of MM90s.

I hope you'll be able to get it sorted out soon. :)
 
Just saw this post....I can't fix or diagnose guitars online. As I am sure BP would tell you, give customer service a call. :cool:
