Question about different Wire Gauges for my Markbass CMD 102p

It is most definitely your power cable. You need to make sure that you use a 1 ga solid power cable and is heavy enough to hit a home run at Fenway Park if you can lift it. Make sure it is Oxygen free, solid copper, twisted in the same direction as the rotation of the earth, was manufactured under the same astrological sign as you were, meets your state carbon emissions limits, and most importantly "fits" in your hand so you are comfortable with it on stage.

Yeah I decided not to go into guitar center - I'll be facing away from the amp when I play so I should be fine. Is it weird that it only occurs when my bridge pickups are turned up vs neck pickups? Thanks for all the help though everyone! Really appreciate it! :)

It's not weird at all when you consider it from an EMC perspective.
