I got my new amp a few days ago, and I have noticed that whenever I turn the amp on, with no guitar plugged in or anything, there will be constant white noise. Even with the volume turned completely down, as long as the amp is on it will produce this noise, even with or without the guitar plugged in. Is this normal?

Not normal.

You may have something inducting in the amp by wall outlet or by air; cell phone , PC, neon light .....
Swicth to OFF all of these

Check for a good ground in your house or try amp in another room or another house .

Return on warranty

I would go down and compare your hiss with other versions of the same model. A certain amount of hiss is normal for any amp.
If yours checks in with more than normal hiss, it could be an issue with the filters on the output. If the hiss isn't in the headphones, then its probably not repairable and should go in for warranty
