Hi.
Anyway, the hum is perhaps the single coil pickups on your guitar.
Turn your amp all the way up,
with the guitar cable unplugged from the amp,
and hear if the hum is still there.
If it's not, it's the pickups, or some other interference,
like a Fluorescent lamp.
Humbucking pickups are way quieter,
but not as sweet and musical.
I usually tell people with this problem to just play,
and you won't hear the hum.
Alan
