    Default Seth Anniversay Problem

    Hi, can anyone give advice on a possible solution to this problem? I'm getting a good impedence measurement, and when I tap on the screws with a scredriver I can hear it loud and clear, but it's not picking up the strings, or very lightly picking up the strings. I've tried switching out the magnet with a 57 classic, and I've tried reversing the magnet. All my solder points were good, and I've tried it in different guitars with the same result.
    Thanks, Mike

    Thanks for the response. Its definitely the pickup, I tried it in 2 different guitars with the same result. Also, I put the old pickup back in, and it works. Same cable, pots, etc. This set was a return at mf, however, they assured me it worked fine. They probably just put a meter on it and it looked fine. I'm stumped. BTW, the neck pickup sounds great.
    Thanks, Mike
