JackieMoon Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hi all, Recently acquired LH500 head and 410TP cab. Plugging in new Squier Chris aiken P, running VT bass in front. Loud and punchy but a bit of crackle and hiss coming through. No noise with the bass unplugged/turned down. Seems very prominent on the low E, and occurs with the pedal on/off or disconnected. I've checked cables and connections for noise. When I tried the head at the sellers house it was crackle free, as was the cab from someone else. I don't have a 2nd bass or cab to try through it. Could it be a shielding issue? Many thanks, Joe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieMoon Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) I hope I've sussed out the culprit... The Duncan design quarter pounder is set very close to the strings. Would this produce a crackle + distortion I shall find out when I get home! Edited April 11, 2014 by JackieMoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
