Product Tags



3 inches of non shielded wire from jack turned out to be a total Buzzzzzz kill. Shows that shield needs to connect to ground in order to work.

Simple twisted pair experiment showing reduced hum/buzz when temporary ground wire (black), is wrapped around the “hot” input wire (Red), and connected to ground.

Shielded wire is about 50 cents a foot from local electronics/hobby shop or StewMac.com
$2 is well worth it……

Plugged into Fender Greta amp.
