Buzzy sound on vintage EST96a

I have this active bass and I got it out of storage on Friday. I replaced the battery. I put it straight to amp through two or three different cables and it buzzes on all strings when played - worse on lower strings 

 

does the same if sent straight to a zoom b2.1u and headphones 

 

Is the preamp burned out somehow, I’m wondering, and what would I replace it with ?

Sounds like a grounding issue
