My 40 year old fender bassman had it's first show on wednesday which was a lot of fun. Yesterday, I brought it home and plugged it back in. Today, when I went to jam with my brother, my fingers started to tingle when I turned the amp on. After about half an hour of playing, my fingers and hands suddenly began to tingle and hurt. I immediately turned of the amp and put down the guitar. I can only assume that somehow I was (mildly) electricuted from the amp. Does anybody know what's going on?!?
