jamesbass116 Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 my '04 MIM jazz has had a vicious buzz that goes away whenever i touch the strings.. i thought it was originally a grounding problem but i've sent it into the shop 3 times and the buzz just comes back. i've read about people using copper tape to settle the problem, but would that sort it? seeing as though it's been so consistent after so many trips to the repair shop it could also be the repairman.. if you have any local london repairman you know of that are good that'd be helpful! thanks James Quote
