Aloha Folks. It’s been awhile since I’ve posted any threads in here so I hope I’m in the right area to do so. I wanted to see if anyone else who’s a EBMM HSS Cutlass has experienced any issues with a Low frequency/sound Buzz noise when bringing the volume up. I’ve been gigging 6-7 nights a week and recording almost everyday and I’ve been bummed the last month or so that I can’t use this guitar until I figure out the issue cause it’s very noticeable. Of course I’ve changed the battery and took a look inside for any loose ground wires but everything looks nice and tidy.. So I’m a bit perplexed with the problem. So before I email my artists rep (I’m a EBMM artist) I wanted to see if y’all had any ideas I could look into or check out. The guitar is fairly new, I think if I remember correctly I got it first quarter of 2022.. I have another first generation EBMM cutlass SSS that is my number one and a Hunter Hayes Cutlass that have no issues like that.. I rarely use the Hunter Hayes Model outside of the studio cause I really need a tone control/knob while I’m playing my shows/gigs.. I’d greatly appreciate any insight on this issue I’m having. Mahalo (thx) in advance!

RJ! Welcome back, it's great to see you again!

Does this happen in all pickup positions? Does the volume of the buzz change in step with the guitar signal or is there a setting that it's worst at?
Aloha, yea long time no chat.. actually it gets considerably louder as I move up from the bridge to the neck position but it’s there for sure.. if I lived in the continental US then I’d probably just contact my rep and send it back to get it looked at but it’s a task doing that from Hawaii.. lmk if you think of anything.. truly appreciate it.. Mahalo
