Ibanez TBX150H Hums

[blickfang]

Hi All

I have an Ibanez TBX150H and it hums.  I have no idea why it should; I thought that was a valve amp characteristic.  Anybody know how I can get rid of the hum?  This amp sounds too great not to play.

Thanks for your input

I agree these amps have way too much circuit noise but keep in mind,,
These Amps are for Live gigs Not bedroom level.
You will not hear that background noise when playing at concert levels.

That buzz and hum is a common issue for nearly all these hi gain Amps.
I bet it does not hum much on the clean channel??

If you want to rid the amp of hum and buzz,,,
Then nothing short of a complete redesign/rebuild will likely fix it.
