Loud noise when using Squier bass VI via interface (but not with an amp)?
I bought a Squier Bass VI on Saturday. All good through my practice amp. But, when I plug it into my interface (which is very important to me as I record into it), the noise is very loud.
It silences when I touch the metal plating, but when playing it's still always there, unusably loud.
I never have this issue on my Telecaster or my bass guitar. I've tried different cables, and moving around the room, but no fix.
One thing I did notice when I unscrewed the metal plating, was that there is a loose cable that goes into a hole under the bridge. I presume that is supposed to be like that?
Any tips on how I can reduce this noise?
Thanks
