Hi everyone, long time Fender user, first time poster :D . My question is this... I bought this bass with the stock noiseless pickups, but I still get a ground buzz (a la single coil pickups), and the buzz stops if I touch any metal points, like the knobs. Does anyone else have this issue, and if so, have you found any way to work around it?

Thanks,

Shawn

I had the same issue with my 75 jazz reissue...It was the speaker cabinet not the guitar. Have you tried different amps/speakers?

I have the 4-string version with the same pickups. I get no buzzing at all from mine. Sounds like you might have a loose ground wire somewhere. Check the control cavity. Also, there usually is a ground wire under the bridge. If that come loose, you will have a buzz problem too.
