my guitar strings vibrate too, usually when i pluck them. it does this annoying thing where it makes a noise which is then converted to an electrical signal through the use of magnets and wire, it's really irritating!

Probably your pickups are too high on the bass side. And you might not have enough winds round the pegs.

Sounds like an exorcism is what's required here. The spirit of Corgan compels you!

I was going to say this, or that you have a phantom Ebow
