I'm playing a ESP with 81 & 85 emg pickups and a Peavey valveking head on a
Hartke cab with a boss metalzone pedal. The problem is I'm using a noise
gate pedal and I'm still get buzzing and feedback. Is there anyway to get
rid of this crap without buying new equipment. I love the tone and sound I
have now. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

| Sounds like you have tons of gain and are playing to close to your amp. ____________________

yeah, i think most likely its too much gain. try taking the gate off and
turning the gain down until you get to a point where it only feeds back if
you are close to your amp. also make sure your amp is a little louder than
you would have it if you were playing along with a drum kit, then play. if
there isnt enough gain and its still feeding back and buzzing, it probably
is a ground issue. probably the amp or even the electrical in your home.i
wouldnt think it would be the guitar.
the reason i suggested you tweak with the amp loud is because alot of
people dont know that the louder you turn up your amp, the more distortion
your gonna get. therfore if you have the maximum distortion possible
without feeding back when it is super loud, you wont have as much gain when
its quiet. every amp ive ever played is like that, and ive played alot.
youd be surprised at how little gain you need at high volumes.
most importantly, i hope you have your pedal through the clean setting on
your amp. if not, THAT is definitely your problem.
i hope this helped.
