Pickup volume

[Luke S Mouse]

Recently I repaired an Epiphone EB0 I've had for several months, piecing it back together and replacing the faulty factory humbucker with a Dimarzo Model 1. It plays fine, but I'm having trouble with loudness of the pickup when I plug it in bass to amp. Any suggestions in fixing this problem?

Having trouble how? Not loud enough, too loud? Please explain.

The problem I'm experiencing is that it isn't loud enough

Are the strings further away from the p/u than before? You may need to adjust your saddle height.

How do you have the DiMarzio wired? Black and white wire connected together? Red to hot green to ground?

I switched out the bridge for one from a Squier Bronco I used to have, due to the bass basically falling apart the first time I dropped it Do you think that would affect it in any way?

I don't remember the specifics, I think I followed the standard wiring for humbuckers specified in the directions I got with the pickup
