I recently had my amp in the shop because I was getting a lot of static/hum when I was playing. I got new preamp tubes as that was what they said was needed. Brought it home and it still made noise so after some investigation I found the cable between my Boss GP8 and my amp was the culprit. Intermittent so it was hard to nail down until you played for up to an hour for it to happen. The cable was probably 25 years old so maybe it was just old. I wonder how much I wasted on new tubes over the past ten years when it was a cable...well maybe the tubes were bad too... Seems to be working fine after several hours of playing...
