Hi everyone!

Could somebody with a BL705, turn their amp up pretty loud, and then put two fingers on their pickup cover. Does it hum?

I would assume not. Yet mine does! I thought it would be a grounding issue, but my multimeter shows continuity between the blades and the jack ground.

Nightmare!

P.S. they are re-issues.

I just mounted a new one on my SD10 pressed on it with my amp (67 Fender VR) set to 8 and it remains absolutely noiseless.
