I just received my new SE EG in the mail today & have discovered after messing around with it a bit that whenever I turn the tone knob above 0-2 I start to get humming that gets progressively louder the farther up I turn the tone knob. I can get rid of it by turning my treble knob on my amp all the way down. Also, strangely enough, while I'm touching the strings or the metal touching the strings (tuners, bridge) it goes almost completely away. It's very irritating to say the least. Any ideas as to how I can fix it? Or should I try to return it? I bought it off of eBay so returning it would be a hassle I would like to avoid if at all possible. Other information: it happens no matter which pickup I'm using & I've tried multiple cables but just one amp, however, from what I've read online an amp problem seems unlikely. If you need any more information to diagnose just ask. Thanks for the help.
