A hum usually means a bad ground, somewhere. It could also be a dirty control pot.

I would try it on another amp. If it does not make the noise, then it is your amp, not the guitar. In which case I would not try to fix it myself. You could do even more damage to it by trying the DIY method. Have an electronics repair person look at it. (Having said that, it sounds like a ground problem to me. It could also be a bad cord, try a new one. Guitar chord I mean.) It could also be moister in the pick ups or the controls. You could check the amp power cord for a good ground. Just look to see if the wires are all connected tightly. (Unplug it first please.)
Good luck.

As a self-taught drummer myself, i will inform you that there rather is not any 'speedy" thank you to study an device. It takes rather some persistence, practice, self-discipline, and annoying artwork. Now that being mentioned, some human beings do study quicker than others so it fairly relies upon on the guy. I even have 2 cousins that the two play guitar and the two are self-taught. My one cousin Terry practiced just about on a daily basis and picked it up quicker than my cousin Dave, who did not practice almost as plenty. Terry grew to become extraordinarily darn stable in approximately 8 months. all of it boils right down to how desperate you're, how plenty you practice, and how quickly you p.c.. issues up. My suggestion could be to get an academic e book or DVD and study some chords. in case you do it on your person you will save rather some money and you will bypass at your person p.c... Guitar instructions at the instant are not affordable at present, until you realize somebody. in simple terms supply it a shot on your person for a month or 2 and notice the form you progression. Then in case you sense you like instructions to get extra suited, then come across a stable instructor that should not be too costly. however the secret's to coach....practice.....practice! stable good fortune!

Buy a Fender amp. They are much better than a Marshall in my opinion. Fender amps have a richer tone to them.
I had that problem with my Peavy. It eventually went away for me, but you should just bring down to your local music shop and have it looked at.

without a guitar cord plugged in, I'd say you have a bad ground, or none at all.
if the guitar is plugged in, the cord could be the culprit, or the pickups need shielding.

that can be a good thing, feedback sounds cool.
check that your overdrive/gain is off, and you dont have any interference
sometimes a radio on or a computer will make sound extra noises in it
