Members kolapsar Posted January 30, 2014 Members Share Posted January 30, 2014 Can I get shocked if I play my Telecaster while I soak my feet in some hot water and Epsom salts? The amp will be well far away but can the shock get transmitted through the guitar cord at all? Can I get shocked from something within the guitar?

Members gardo Posted January 30, 2014 Members Share Posted January 30, 2014 I was using an ungrounded tube amp and got shocked turning on a light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you touched something that was grounded. Luck it wasn't your lips to a mic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaveAronow Posted January 30, 2014 Members Share Posted January 30, 2014 Yes but only if you stick a key in an electrical outlet while you do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members knotty Posted January 31, 2014 Members Share Posted January 31, 2014 I only ever soak my feet while sitting in a faraday cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aliensporebomb Posted January 31, 2014 Members Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'd avoid playing plugged in using that configuration. Play it acoustically, unplugged and you will not get a perm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
