far0n Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Fished out my Cort Funkmachine the other day which I've not used for a good few months if I'm honest. Plugged it in, sounded 'odd'. Then checked the pickup blend and it seems my neck pickup... only half of it works. The E & A strings are fine, the D & G strings are completely silent. The bridge pickup is perfectly fine. So err... what's going on ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliwailer Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'd speak to or send it to Kent Armstrong. It could be the pole pieces are broken/damaged, I've never heard of a pickup that's wired or wound in two halves but you never know! Good luck.

far0n Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 I thought it may be wired like a split coil P-bass pickup and maybe one half has broken ? The only thing I can think of ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marwood Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) Maybe its a humbucking split coil, you would know if you took the pickup out and opened the casing. If so, chances are a wire to one of the coils has snapped, could be re-soldered. Edited June 11, 2013 by marwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
