pickups sound boomy,out of phase

Hi I have 2 seymour duncan pup's wired with a bcs vintage wiring kit.http://bcsguitars.com/?page_id=585

The bride pup is a custom custom and neck is a pearly gates. The neck pup is way to boomy and when I touch the neck pup tone knob I hear static and I swear sometime's it sounds as though the pup is going out of phase, like the strat sound on 2 and 4.

Can a bad tone pot cause this, all of the wiring looks to be good and wired correctly. I am lost on what to do other than completely doing this job over. Just don't understand how sometimes pup's sound good and sometimes they get really bassy and sound terrible and boomy. Thanks for any suggestions

Edit;Just noticed that when I take off the pup cover the static goes away when I turn the tone knob for neck pup and now it's not boomy the way it was, I wonder when I have the cover on if it's somehow pushing a wire into something, idk, doesn't make much sense to me??

sounds like a bad solder joint to me. either on the red/white wire connection, or that you cover isn't soldered well to the base. i'd look at both.

Hello, thanks for reply. Can you elaborate what you mean cover isn't soldered to the base? I'm not following you.

I did say that when I take off the pup cover on guitar that the static using the neck tone knob goes away, but the boomy sound is still there. I don't know what these pup's are supposed to sound like, maybe I just hate these pickup's..

This was a vintage wiring kit that was already all soldered together, pots,caps,resistor etc... All the original owner had to do was soldered the pup wires and the output, and again looks good and just for the heck of it I desoldered and resoldered. Still sounds so papery and mid rangy with very boomy bass on neck pup.

THis is a Hagstrom select swede guitar, I just had it setup and really like the neck, I was going to flip guitar but I want to keep it. What are some good buckers to throw in there, that aren't the same ole sameole, what I mean is I don't want to just throw in a 59 and a jb jr, I want to experiment a lil, any thoughts on good pup's. I play blues mostly and classic rock. Thanks so much
