Guitar Buzz

Hi,

Anyone had problems with buzzing on the guitar input on the Boss BR600. I have tried adjusting the levels but it is still there. Any suggestions will be gratefully appreciated.

Cheers

Does it got away when you touch your bridge/pickups?

If so you could have a bad earth connection

I think what you're hearing is the so-called ground hum. (50 or 60Hz depending on where you live)
When using the BR600+guitar by itself, using a DC Adaptor, your guitar doesn't have a connection to the ground, since the BR is a Class II appliance.
Solution is to connect the guitar cable's ground to the ground connector in a wall socket, or connect one of the BR's in/outputs to a device that is grounded (for instance a guitar amp)
