Well, not every amp is perfect. When the amp is not plugged in, there is no noise...even if the amp is turned up to the max. When I am plugged in, I am hearing a constant, buzzing sound...not extremely loud...but when i put my fingers on the strings, it stops. Can't hear it when I am actually playing something...just when I'm sitting there. I just assumed it was my single coils...so I plugged in a les paul...still does it. It doesn't sound like there is anything wrong with it...just not a noise I'm used to. I tried a brand new cable, but that didn't change anything. It is obviously not as loud when I'm playing with my Les Paul, but it's still there.

It was well beyond 60 cycle hum! But....PROBLEM SOLVED!! I plugged it into an outlet on the other side of the room, and just like that, the noise is gone. This is an old house, and I believe the outlet is just crappy. In any case, plugging it in on the other side of the room made it all better. I love easy fixes!
