It's a grounding poblem yes.
If it is possible you should plug your amp to a properly grounded outlet (which you probably aren't doing right now).

: My bass, an Ibanez GSR200, is very noisy when plugged in and my fingers are not touching the strings. If I touch the strings or a knob, however, the buzzing goes away. A bass playing friend suggested that I ground the tuners inside the body to a piece of metal, the buzzing would go away. Anyone heard of this? How is it done exactly? Thanks in advance.
