Then make sure to be very careful about how you orient the guitar. At soundcheck before gigs, turn the amp up with the guitar plugged in, don't play anything, just wander around identifying where electrical noise creeps in and if turning around stops it or makes it worse. Avoid those places while playing.

Btw, if you found that useful, you may want to have a look through my older posts. Theres one in the bass thread in particular you may find useful, to do with active electronics. Most active pups are actually more sensitive to string vibration than passives, so have a think about that, it'll reduce your noise a huge way, and you'll find a lot of the p90 sound can be had through actives. Theres a reason Dave gilmour uses them.
