jazz pickups - noiseless recommendations wanted!

[carlsim]

I have a lovely Atelier Z DAL-5 which has the Atelier Z JBZ-5 pickups installed. I have changed the preamp to the Sadowsky on board as I wanted a passive tone control and as the pups are single coils, I do get a tiny bit of noise (well they are single coils!) when pups are isolated. 

In a normal gig situation it wouldn't be a problem, but I do a lot of theatre work and I notice it more and more these days.

So, I can't afford to splash out big, but what would be a good pair of noiseless hum cancelling pups that you fellow BCers would recommend? I don't want to get rid of the original pups, but I would like something quieter for the kind of work I do.

 

Any recommendations?

An excellent full shielding of your bass would make a great improvement and you could keep those excellent single coil pickups. 😉

@Hellzero do you really thing it will make much difference? I have some copper tape so could do this if you think it would fix it...

 

Do you mean preamp cavity only or pup cavities as well?

[Hellzero]

Both @carlsim and ground both of them otherwise it will be useless.

Nordstand pickups will see you right.
