Any slipring recommendation that has a smaller diameter than 24mm? Actually the one I got here might exist in smaller size. One thing is we also need the threaded rod to go through it, so this design seems solid. What is your experience with sliprings? Everyone tells me they are soooo terrible, but to me, at least this one sounds just like a cable connection. Even with many open solder joints I had in this test

Singlecoils always have hum, so when you put god knows how many single-coil mics in a single guitar you will obviously get that much more hum. I wonder if a dummy coil would help with it?

The pickups don't need to follow the strings to work, really, as long as there's no gaps in the electronic fields. You could mount all the electronics on a stationary setup and only have the strings rotate so there's no need for rotating electronics.
@Henrix1998
There are definitely noiseless wireless adapters but they will cost you a lot of money. On your wired setup you need to have twisted cable pairs, that will eliminate noise significantly.

the guitar jack is already rotatable , u just need to make a jig that hold the jack wire in place .u just need to make the jack stationary with the body of the guitar
@ThatLobsterMan
As @astronometic had touched on this, I think having lots of pickups rotating and not disengaging when out of position is likely introducing a lot of noise. You essentially have pickups generating individual magnetic fields picking up signals from the back. Maybe inhibiting the signal from 1/2 of the strings that are around back could help by virtue of reducing the noise floor and mitigating any inadvertent sounds from handling the instrument. Maybe something akin to the slip ring, but with an insulated half-circle preventing signal from passing into the jack for the pickups that are facing back.

“Slip ring.” Aka, Buckethead kill switch! 😂
@f3rny_66
hard to tell without measuring just from the sound levels, but can be like there is a impedance missmatch that causes the wireless circuit to run hotter than normal current levels. Also obviusly the spinny thing will make noise with all those unshielded cables aka antennas, I'm surprised you didn't get alien signals when you connected that spaghetti
@fahge
Have you tried a noise canceling effect?

Sliprings should be prone to noise, but mostly at high-speeds, so you should be good THERE. But a good wireless shouldn't have this white noise unless the signal is really noisy in input, do you have a oscilloscope to see where it come from?
@Astronometric
Stupid question? Why having the pick-up rotating with the strings? There is no way to have a cluster of pickups or a big fixed pick-up at the core with the strings rotating around it? I guess that it may cause some sort of stuttering when each individual string enteres and exits the magnetic field, but it could actually sound interesting? Like, instead of thinking of this instrument as a guitar, it could become an instrument on its own? Does a pickup that has a 360° magnetic polar pattern even exist?
@Fs3i
What kind of dongle are you using for wireless atm? You could try one of the Rode wireless lavmic packs for professional broadcasting, they might work. Generally, professional audio solutions work better than “random receiver I found”, but I wasn’t able to check out what you were using.
@jameslondon9521
make the pickups in one place at the bottom like a guitar is because its a guitar and make the strings rotate around them. the pickups are magnets and the strings are nickel which are magnetic and it might be messing up your vibration. your vibration is the sound

improvements! i don't know if this is a good idea or not (probably bad idea), but what if you put more circular bridges in some middle sections of the
