The signal from piezo is still an electrical one.  Because it is such a low output any induced noise is likely to be more noticeable than conventional pick-ups.  Grounding the hardware is a must.  Even if you use non metallic strings I think you'd have the problem.

The bass is a beauty.  I am gob-smacked!  It would sit well amongst older and more traditional stringed instruments yet it is very much of this era.

Thanks for clearing that up and thanks for the comments on the bass! The electrics is mos def one of the Achilles heels I have when it comes to building

Good work...admire anybody who builds something that's a bit "out there"....I hope you can resolve the niggly problems which come with a custom build.

Thanks, yeah I think it'll be fine if I can do a bit better job of sheilding/grounding next time I take the strings off.

The choice of main and complimentary woods is marvellous. The scale length doesnt work for me personally, but that bass

in 34 or 35 would be stunning
