Both....I'm hoping it was just a freaky one off duff string as mart said...I've never seen or heard of this before. That said I'd not changed strings on this bass in years..like since I got it
I ask because I had a similar problem with my guitar years ago and found what was buzzing was actually the radiator on the wall, I'd hit the resonant frequency of the radiator. I had my guitar set up and everything and couldn't get rid of the buzzing. By chance one day I was leaning on the radiator when playing and felt it.
Worth ruling out if nothing else.

I recently sold this bass - it was nothing wrong with the bass itself it was a dodgy E string. I've never encountered this weirdness before. I took said dodgy string off and tried it on my new bass and it did exactly the same thing - buzzed on open and every single fret up. New string on it and it was fine.

I can't recall - some cheapo set I got off ebay for about £10...wasn't a 'brand' name. All the other 3 strings were absolutely fine though...just something weird going on with the E string. Never seen or heard of this before and hopefully won't come across it again....
