Funny Grounding Issue

Sign in to disble this ad
This is going OT just because i dont want advice to fix it, its just a funny story. I'm sitting here playing bass and i notice it keeps humming pretty bad. I'm looking frantically at my bass and amp and pedalboard and all this stuff to figure it out. I now realize that when im holding my bass and i touch my foot to my computer tower, it makes my amp buzz very loudly! How dumb.

It does this when I change the song on my iPod while practicing.

My baby monitor was humming very loudly the other day. I couldn't figure out why it was doing that and it never had before. Then I plugged in my coffee grinder and the humming immediately stopped. Unplug, hum. Plug in, no hum. Weird.

maybe your baby is just messing with you from the other end?
