Default Static signal only on D string sporatically.

I get this static/signal noise only on the D string. It does not happen constantly and i can not make it happen. I recently wired everything last night. This only happens when i am using the bridge pick up.The outlets are not grounded in the house we live in. It is old. I believe this to be the cause of a lot of the noise i get that stops when i touch the strings,bridge and chord jack. Please watch the video on youtube that i posted and let me know what you think.

Thank you,

Your Outlets are not grounded? My home is from 1900 and its been wired for ground. I thought that was a necessity with old homes....anyways.

Sounds like a ground issue. Re-check your ground on your solder job and maybe post some pics of the guts.
