Yep, from the second I set it up. What amp do you have? I also read something about the grounding thing, but have no idea how to solve it. I only have a cheap bass amp as I only own it for practice really. It only has bass, mid, treb and presence settings which if I play with I can lessen the buzz, but not completely. For instance if I turn the mid all the way up the buzz goes down a bit, but I don't want to play with that setting. I'm curious if I can somehow solve the grounding issue cheaply. Does anyone have any ideas?
