Hi all, just Registered today but I have been lurking for a short while.
I am in Brisbane and a keen Bass beginner.

I am in the process of completing an IB-5 and I think I have bit off more than I can chew with my rudimentary soldering skills.
At present I have everything soldered but all I get is what I think is a solid tone ground hum so I am not sure what is going on there.
I see that there is a recommendation in another thread to get an active Belcat harness so I may go that way if I can't trouble shoot the issue.
