getting shocked by mics, help!

| giustd | getting shocked by mics, help! at the gig last saturday my bass player was getting zapped every time his lip hit the mic. we changed the mic, the cable, and most importantly the outlet that his amp was plugged into, switching instead to the same outlet as the PA, no change, he still kept getting goosed. He uses some newer SS fender amp with a 3 prong plug, so I can't see how it'd be the amp. This same problem happened to me once at a gig a few months ago, I spent an hour later that week with the PA, amps and a meter. I couldn't reproduce the zap. very strange. Ideas, boys? This must be stopped!HELP!!! |
