Trem , is your bridge floating or flush or do you have it blocked .. you might try checking the six screws that secure the bridge to the body , how many springs in the trem set up... shielding the inner routes will cut down on hum but wont cure the feedback issue , check your pickup heights as well , another possibility is that you may have a pickup gone microphonic .. break out the mulit meter and have at it bro...the 30dB boost might be the issue with the dimarzios, but i doubt it ..its one of two things set up and hardware or electronic...nice choice on the mods to that baby by the way .. one more thought , maple or rosewood board ? ..6S9L

Marty DiBergi: "This tasteless cover is a good indication of the lack of musical invention within. The musical growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry."
Nigel Tufnel: That's just nitpicking, isn't it?
