Neil -

Is your problem humming from the pickups, or buzzing from the frets? If it is hum, You might want to try shielding your bass first. Check out this post.

Jazz Shielding Pictorial (Big Images Warning)

The Fralins are great pickups, and their split jazz models will help to cancel out the hum. But sheilding your bass may do the same for you at a cheaper price. If the frets are buzzing, you may just need a good setup, which will also be cheaper than new pickups.
