I have a 1993 1987x reissue head that sounds great but has the annoying hum or white noise issue that apparently is pretty common. A tech recently looked everything over and found no major issues. My research tells me it's probably something to do with preamp wiring, tubes, etc. I'd like to open it up and just look at this area and make sure the wires are braided and against the back plate, but I won't be messing with any soldering or anything like that. I know there's serious voltage inside and I don't want to kill myself. I'm thinking I should be alright without really messing with anything like a transformer or capacitor, but I don't want to accidentally bump into something that could cause a problem.
Any advice or tips (about opening it up or fixing the hum in general) would be appreciated. Thanks.
