so I have this bzzzz sound coming from my new (to me) Gottlieb SG, everything works fine I played it yesterday and today it's just a little annoying over time... could it be a ground cable or something?

There is a System 3 Ground mod. You can find the instructions on Pinwiki. My Stargate has the mod and still hums, but some people say that it helps.
