Title: White noise in my Crate G130C XL
Post by: smanzi333 on March 13, 2010, 10:00:36 PM
Can anyone help with this? There is a noise like wind or white noise coming from my amp, its not a hum but more of a wind sound.

Hi smanzi.
Please be a little more specific.
1)Do you hear it with all controls on 0?
2)Do you hear it on the clean channel with volume on 10 and all tone controls on 0?
Does it appear when moving treble from 0 to 10? Is it just heard or is it unbearable, overpowering the guitar sound?
3) Do you hear it on the distortion channel, with gain on 5, volume on 5 and tone controls on 5? ... then treble on 10?
Well, that to start with.
