Hi there, I'm new to the Fender forum.
I'm having some troubles with my Jaguar Bass, so i decided to post up here right on the fender forum.

My fender does some noises, in the back, while i'm not playing .... and does even more noises when i get my pedals on.

My recent researches tells me that i should Shield the bass or put the Noiseless Pickup, but Shielding wont solve the problem 100%...

here goes recording of the bass:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq-y3FlqrsA (Digital camera record, used compressor, Maximizer and pre amplifier)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2na5bJQaw9s( Digital camera record, used all the stuff up + 2 distortion pedals)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HjMN84MlsI (Studio record)

Please tell me if the Pickup would solve my problem and also not lose the sound that the bass has...
thanks

Any bass with multiple options for tone will make at least a little electrical noise. A little hum isn't much of a problem...if that's all it is. I'd keep the original pickups and stuff. Have a luthier check to see if the bass is grounded correctly and the pots are clean. Won't cost much.
