I recently purchased a tone control line and i'm having a noise problem with it. I get a nice buzz through the amp. I have gone through the wiring and cannot find any mistakes that I may have had. the buzz is there with the volume control turned all the way down. When I turn the volume up the buzz kind of go away but still there is less. Does anyone have any ideas?

Re: PAS TCLA noise problem
I would guess something at the input, since when you turn the volume UP, you are lowering the impedance at the input, thus affecting the hum/buzz pickup.
General rule of thumb I follow is that if it's a BUZZING, the most likely cause is a ground loop. I'd start there.

Re: PAS TCLA noise problem
most likely a bad ground, or lack of ground, or ground loop
