Hi Everybody,
Would anybody out there know how to cure a
hum in my session 400 limited wedge amp.
I unpluged all my cords,thought maybe a bad
cord but that did not help.Thought maybe a
bad house ground,but I have another amp plugged into the same outlet and that one
dosen't hum. If anyone has any ideals
please let me know.

THANKS,
RICK

Does it still hum with the reverb off?

Hi Brad,

When I press the reverb switch off on the
pedal it doesn't hum, but if I use the
volume pedal for my steel I can still
hear a little hum.

THANKS!

Rick,
Check the ground wires on your reverb wiring connections. This could be the problem since you can turn the reverb off and the hum ceases.

If you experience a hum when using your volume pedal, simply eliminate your volume pedal and if the hum continues, take your amp to an authorized service center. Here is a link to our service locator from our website;
