My friend has a Jackson bass, made in 1986 with a nice J serial #!
It has an active electronic setup by EMG, with the standard P
J configuration. The 9V battery is located in the control cavity of course.
The Jazz pickup is a SC and has a buzz when it is on and the switch is either in the back or the middle position. There is no buzz on the front position.
We took it to a shop today and the tech said that there is a noise dampener on the H pick up but none on the SC (obviously) and that the buzz is "just how they are".....
I HATE when I get that answer.......
Is that true?
Anyone one have any experience with an older Jackson Bass in this set up?
Is there any solution?
He's used it on a number of recordings and doesnt recall it doing that before. Been a long time since he's really used it tho!
Help?
Anyone?
Thanks guys!
