Got a J&D Luthiers LS-3 on weekend at Cash Converters(sort of porn shop). and while it plays nice and appears very well made, It has some minor issues.
One is a hissing sound through amp that stops when I touch either the strings or tuners.
The other is the pickups may be not so good, OK but an excuse to try something else.
So what should I look for to solve hiss sound.
And what would be a good start for some decent sounding Pickups at a reasonable price?
J&D Luthiers is a chinese factory that used to make Epiphone guitars for Gibson. Maybe still do I don't know, but they market a range of guitars under this brand.
From all reports they are well on par with Epiphone models but as for pickups etc. I'm not sure.
