No - serious - is this only with the open a string or also when you fret the a on e string 5th fret ?

Only in the open a string sir

Check that the pickup wiring isn't sympathetically vibrating against the guitar body inside. In fact check everything for tightness; tuner screws, nuts, endpin jack nut and washer. Strange noisy often originate somewhere else.

Can you locate where the noise is created ?
When all components ( wires, bridge pins, tuner parts, nut , saddle) are excluded as possible source, you can try to remove the strings one by one - a-string last to look, if it has to do with strings.

Open string only = probably the nut slot (think horses, not zebras). If not then take a look at Frank Ford's frets.com and his section on various causes of noises.
