    Rocktron V300 and cab combo

    ive heard that something called a power conditioner or power regulator can help clean up your sound. A brand called Furmer i think makes nice ones.

    Rocktron V300 and cab combo

    And I do have a line 6 75 watt spider combo amp. Is there anyway I can bypass the preamp on that amp to test if it is my pedal?

    Power amp humming noise???

    I am running a pod hd500 into a rocktron velocity 300. Then the 300 into a cab. The rocktron power amp operates at 8 ohms and I have tried this setup with two different cabs, a Marshall vs412 and a peavey 4x12 (can't remember peavey model) both set ups have resulted in a very loud humming noise...

    LTD sc607b

    Thank you all so much for the feedback. I was lucky enough to find a website selling this guitar for 50 percent off! I scored this beast, from what I'm hearing, for $499 dollars! Shred on! \m/ -mike
