Re: Fender hum balance...help me
Fender's hum balance is a bias balance, not  
 
a filament balance. If it has to be way off  
 
center for lowest noise, the most likely  
 
cause is mismatched power tubes (assuming  
 
that the caps and resistors are all OK).  
 
Try swapping the tubes and see if you have  
 
to turn it the other way.
