Could I have your opinons and perspectives?

I have a Hot Rod Deville 410 that is giving out a lot of background hum and noise when turned on. It is plugged into a grounded (I think, haven't checked the wiring behind the walls) surge protector.

The hum also shows up in my Marshall MG 100DFX, but to a lesser degree. Any ideas?

I'm going to guess somewhere in your house you have a source of radio interference.

Florescent tubes, and CFL lights are good at creating noise, so are some electric motors and air cleaners. in furnaces.
It is also possible for noise to travel down the line from outside your house.


Have you tried placing the amp in different locations or on different outlets ?

Also should ask, does it make noise with the instrument cable plugged in or even without it connected? Might just be a poorly shielded cable.
