Soliciting the group for ideas!
I got my repaired Custom 20 back from PRS Tech a few months ago and they fixed the distortion roar I was getting from my effects loop - it was great to have the amp back.
But I still am getting more noise in the effects loop than I want - and maybe that's just the way it is with this tube driven effects loop.
But I was able to reduce the noise a bit by doing the following:
1. Running the amp and pedal board power through a Furman AC215A
2. Using an isolated power supply for the pedals (yeah, I know... should have done that way before...)
3. Tweaking the Send/Return jacks
4. Better cables
I haven't tried tube subsitutions or a noise gate in the loop - the loop is equally noisy just with a patch cable alone compared to the whole pedal board.
Anyone have any thoughts?
The pedal board in front of the amp sounds dead quiet but I really want my Tremolo and Delay after the pre-amp gain.
Thanks!
