IRRITATING noise

[hafoz]

i own a squier jazz bass with Bartolini hum cancelling Dual Coil Pickups (9CBJD1) and i practice on my harkte A25.

THE PROBLEM : whenever i play, there'll be like an IRRITATING noise which sounds like a buzz/screeching/whatever you call it. it couldnt be my pick ups. is it because of the two pin plug which comes with the hartke A25 since it does not have an earth wire? if yes, should i change to a three pin plug? if yes, how coz im not used to these DIY kinda things?

wah i wrote quite alot. okay anyway, THANKS in advance to everyone willing to lend a helping hand. :mrgreen:

it might be due to the cable you are using?
or it could be due to loose input jack.
not sure about the 2-pin problem though.

change the 2pin to a 3pin should help.
if you cant diy go to simlim and buy a 3pin psu cable.
shouldnt cost much.

eh guys, u know where get those power cable where its meant for such 2 pin amp plugs, there is like 2 opposite ends sticking out which does not allow sound to leak out of the plug?
