Here Today... Gone To Hell!

ok i go to plug in this morning to rehearse and my equipment is being a major pain in the fucking ass

i played for bout 3 hours straight last week and everything worked awesomely

today i plug my guitar into my digitech 300a guitar pedal board and all i heard was the most annoying screechin feedbackish *but its not feedback* just hisssssssssssssssing from hell

when i turn my tone on  my guitar all the way down it stops, but when i turn it back up here comes the fuckin hissing

i have two guitars and it does the same shit on both guitars

its not my PA cause instruments plugged straight into the PA sound fine


anyone have any clue why my pedal board is doing this?
u cant play, it sounds great while u are playin but as soon as u let it ring it fuckin just hisses and buzzes like a motherfucker

should i send this back and get a refund? or is it something simple?

it cost 200 bucks and i have 16 days left b4 i cant get a refund

so please someone give me some advice!!!!!

It's most propably because you have a monitor or something like that on nearby when you're playing... Try turning it/them off.

that can mess it up?
wow!!!!

i had my mic plugged in, and my studio thing plugged in jammin with it and a tv on with the sound down which one of those could trigger it?

i fixed the problem, i turned my noise gate up as far as it would go almost and its knocked that shit out

but still i dont think i should have to do that



i just wrote like 3 fast incredible riffs, thing is im more of a slow lighter type artist, so i dont know what to do with them

i guess listening to VR has inspired myheavier side

Well I'd have to go with the TV, since the others prolly don't have CRT's (Cathode Ray Tube)... Since your guitar has magnetic pickups, it recieves elctromagnetic radiation, that standard monitors and tv's emit. Newer displays and TV's that are based on a different solution should not do this, but all the standard displays do, so you should not keep them on while you play. You can reduce this by turning your guitar away from the TV, but I suggest you turn it off.

maybe it`s ground trouble.... change the place in the energy plug, or maYBE  the ground cable inside the guitar is cutted, maybe too much equipment plugged in the same place, if you have single coils always you will have noise, check those ;)

is it the guitar? is it the amp cords? is it the speakers? what the hell makes  a guitar friggin buzz like a hive of angry bees

it buzzes out my PA, it buzzes when plugged into my studio, it is killin me

when i turn the tone down it goes away but u cant play guitar with your tone turned down

so has anyone experienced this? what can i do?

i know its not monitors etc, unless having the lights on can trigger it

so anyone have a clue

Maybe some of the soldering on the pots or ground in your guitar came loose. That's why when you turn the tone all the way down and take it out of the signal it stops. Pop open the control cavity and look for any broken solder joints.
