Faith Venus eclipse hum/buzz
My lovely eclipse has a hum/buzz when plugged into my cube amp.
Tried other leads and still there, doesn't hum when I plug in my Les paul. The hum goes away or greatly reduces when I touch the metal part of the input jack and also when I reach inside and hold the braided wire going to the pick up from the pre amp. I've Good idea from googling & searching on here that it's a ground problem but that's about as far as I've got. Anyone have an idea where to go from here?

welcome to the AGF!
assuming that it just started doing it, sounds like you have a loose wire either on the pickup or thru to the volume/tone pots and/or to the jack. or, possibly to the preamp. i don't know an eclipse, but now i think it sounds like an acoustic electric since you mentioned preamp. play music!

Thank you muscmp
I did have another 4 way extension lead with tv DVD plugged in next to the amp on the 2 gang socket. turning this off reduced the noise but still there a little I will remove the strings & have a fiddle inside as much as I can get to.
