If the coils are wound asymmetrical by about 10-15%. Humbucker will also not cancel out 120 cycle rectified current, if memory serves. Been a long time since I've read about that.
Ground loop issues will also cause hum.
As will bad pots.
If it's a 4-conductor 'bucker, is it wired correctly? Just had a go with a customer about that.. massive hum problems...blamed me. Didn't have it wired correctly...
