Ok so i bought some SCNs to get rid of my single coil hum issues (Mexican Strat) and thought i would install myself...

when i removed the pickguard the wiring was nothing like the diagram nor anything i found on the net. On the tone select the pickups were connected to the posts of the other side and there was a fourth wire that ran to some sort of 4th pickup shell thing, plus there was a stack of additional wires (red, greens, blues) - basically far more than any diagram i have seen.

In any event, i didnt follow the Fender diagram and instead attached my pickups back to the same posts the old ones came off and then soldered the remaining 6 as per diagram.

the tone sounds great....but theres more HUM than ever!

whats with my funky wiring and whats the problem??

looking at the wiring diagrams, i think the closest thing would be the ERIC CLAPTON STRATOCASTER UPGRADE, although mine is not a Clapton as far as i know.
