carl0s Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 My Peavey Cirrus BXP is really bad for noise. The noise is suppressed until you play a note. Kind of like the squelch control on a CB radio. To be fair, the Peavey's batteries died a couple of days ago and I haven't put new ones in it yet, so maybe with full batteries it'll be OK, but.. I just got a Lakland 44-01, and on higher notes (9th fret on top string upwards), I can hear (only just, but I do tune into it), a sort of transistor fuzz in the background of the note. It's like coil whine/fuzz, what a lot of laptops do nowadays. I can hear it with my Pod on bypass too.. still going through the Pod, but just on Tuner mode. Should I just get over it and tune my head out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Does my head in. I've always been a gadget and electronics freak, but nowadays bloody dimmer lightswitches, computer graphics cards, dvd players, TVs, my laptop when it's on AC.. they all irritate me with unwanted noises.
