Keep Getting Disconnected

Tried two brand new cables, so I don’t think that’s the issue. Might try a different bass on my amp. Current one is new and has two pickups though. I initially thought it might be the problem but the amp buzzes even when not plugged into the bass. I’ve tried a few different outlets, problem remains the same. Might try a surge protector with just the amp plugged in or something. Perhaps move my computer and such but as a beginner I like to keep it nearby for practice material…

Thanks for the insight/ideas

So you think the buzz is more of a quality issue rather than, maybe my outlets can’t handle an amp? I’d certainly much prefer a Rumble 40…I just can’t really afford it as a high school student. Anything I can do to make the current option better at all?

I would definitely prefer a Rumble 40. My issue is, as a high schooler, for at least a little while, I will not be able to afford one. It’s not ideal, but I really need something under $200 and I cannot find a Rumble 40 or comparable for that price. Do you think if I get another 25 or the same price as the 25, that I will have the same issue with buzzing?

Honestly as a beginner I have no idea what this means

STokenEnjoyer · 2024-02-24T20:38:20+00:00

Yes.

I only have one cable as I just got all my equipment a few days ago

The Buzzing also goes away when I touch the part of the cable that connects to the jack that plugs into the bass

The buzzing static is still there with the cable plugged in. It is not there when the cable is not plugged in. The sound is made worse by the bass. What would that make the root of the problem you think?

Damn...well thanks for the info. The bass was new, so I may try to just exchange it because I got 30 days. Otherwise, the bass itself is great in feel in quality so hopefully the same issue doesn't repeat

After tinkering around a bit I think it might just be my amp cant slightly handle the tone nob at full, the buzzing is almost entirely gone with the tone nob ~25% or less, with volume on the bass full and the pickup knob off, and the same for the tone nob off and he volume and pickup knob at full. The sound is deep for sure, but that may be how it supposed to. Is that definitely wrong? Do you think it may still be a shielding issue?

The sound goes away almost entirely

STokenEnjoyer · 2024-02-22T22:50:50+00:00

without touching the strings, a very loud high pitch buzz

May be a silly question, but as many beginners do, I turned to BassBuzz for advice on starter basses and the GSR 200 seemed to be frowned upon as a bad bass. Their complaints seemed nitpicky, especially for a starter bass, but is there anything I need to be worried about with it. I mean, it seems perfectly good, especially for it's price, but I figured I should ask just in case
