Be careful. If one of your equipment chassis has gotten hooked up to the hot side of the AC line, you could get electrocuted! :eek:

to me, it sounds like he could have shorted out both his amp and noise supressor by connecting the hot of the plug to the ground of the pedal (since pedals and some amps are normally grounded to their chasis).


just another thought to be thrown out.

did he even check the plug on the outlet to see if anything else worked?
