    I’ve been playing an Epiphone hollow body through a Boss Metal Zone pedal. The distortion is a beast, but it feedbacks like a mofo when I’m not playing. If I put a hum debugger in the chain, would it eliminate the feedback? I’ve watched a couple of reviews on the website, but all they talk about is hum suppression from single coils.
    thanks

    no the Hum-Debugger will not fix your problem.

    the Hum-Debugger only eliminates 60 cycle hum experienced from pickups do to poor shielding and surrounding influences like neon lighting ect…

    you need an actual noise suppressor, that unfortunatly EHX does not currently make, unless you seek out the vintage The Silencer from them, but you would probobly be better off getting a modern one from another maker. like the ISP Decimator, is real nice, or the one from Rocktron.

    some people put foam in their hollowbodies to reduce feedback, or they maker F-hole covers.
