well i have just brought a (cheap) P-bass. To tinker with, it has a bad humming issue and volume/tone ajustments
make no difference. so tomorrow i will pull it apart and check for grounding issues hopefuly i can fix it myself

As mentioned, strings, set-up, and as it has humming/buzzing, new electrics and shield the cavities/back of pickguard with copper shielding tape.

well i got the bass yesterday, was late so i tried it on rocksmith and could find no hum/buzz??
today i plugged it into a bass amp and there was a slight hum but not too bad. twiddled with the tone and volume controls fast back and forth.
and the hum has gone!!!
so i am guessing a faulty pot?? should be easy fix

has now been cleaned up came up like new not bad for £30
