Hey Z-BRO'S,
I have one of Doc's new GALAXIE 1X12 combos!
I am experiencing this annoying hum that kicks
in immediately after turning the Standby switch
from off to on! I have had my Galaxie about 5
weeks! The amp sounds super at the lowest
volume settings on up so it doesn't seem likely
that a pre-amp tube or power tube is the
culprit! It doesn't get any louder when you turn
the volume up but it is always their like I said
as soon as you take the standby switch from on
to off!
Wondering if the Tube Rectifier could possibly be
the culprit! Tried plugging into different sockets
in my apartment and that didn't change anything!
I have a MONSTER POWER STRIP that I plug it
into and also plugged directly into the wall sockets
but HUM is still their!It isn't the 60 cycle hum from
my Strat cause I even took my instrument cable
out with volume turned off and the "HUM" is their!
I bought it from ELITE MUSIC SALES in MONTGOMERY,
AL! I hate to have to hall it back to ELITE MUSIC but
I will if I can't get the HUM taken care of!
I have posted this same message in the "ASK THE
EXPERTS" under MYLES and CHAD'S section so
hopefully between them and the rest of you Z-NATICS
that have a Galaxie I will be able to get rid of this
"ANNOYING arse HUM"!
