I bought this beaut back in summer of last year and she's served me well, that is until recently. I swapped out the old pups for the much acclaimed EMG GZR PJ set and ever since then the jazz pup wont shut up unless I turn it all the way down. I opened her up once more to see what was wrong and it was around this time that I noticed the bridge wasn't grounded at all, in fact it's completely isolated from the cavities. I've purchased some copper tape to shield all of it, but regarding the bridge...I'm thinking of drilling a hole from it straight into the cavity and connecting it with a wire. Before I do this I just want to ask is there any other alternative for trying to ground it? I've only owned 4 basses in my life and this is the first I've opened one so I'm unsure as to if this is an isolated to this specific model or if its common.
Any help or advice is appreciated, us standard Jaguar owners seem to be far and few between sadly.
