Re: Bucket O' Noise

Thats all fine and dandy but its irrelevant as hell. What difference
does it make whats grounding what as long as the guitar gets quiet when
you touch the strings. When he talks about touching a cord plugged into
an amp and it making noise well yeah. You're touching the hot
leg of an open circuit thats going directly to the first preamp tube.
If a few milliamps could kill you then I guess I'm dead and dont know
it. I dont know how many amps are coming off of the pole into a house?
100...150 ? But I 've accidentally hit all three wires at the same time
that feed the service when tearing the tops off of houses .Twice I've
done it. This was so we could build a second story onto the house.
Tired ,dirty ,hot sweaty and not paying enough attention. Pulling up
edge metal and ....ouch quit it. It hurt like two sombitches and made a
little girl type of scream come from somewhere in me that I couldnt
duplicate if I tried for 100 years. Man my arm and shoulder was
throbbing like a young hens ass.
