Hello. If i stacked my Kustom heads on top of each other or side by side, would they get a lot of buzzing/intereference from one another? Also, would the same apply if I put the Kustom head on top of another amp (obviously not hooked together, but both amps on)? Thanks!

Hi, depending on how you sit or stack any amp, even if they are not hooked up together, you may get a 60 HZ hum induced into the preamp of one amp from the power transformer of the other amp. Most kustom amps have the transformer on the right rear as you face the front of the amp. Just plug your guitar in, turn it up some. and move around the head with your pick ups about 3 inches away, you,ll find the transformer real fast!

Hello. If they are two Kustoms with the innards lined up, would they not buzz or buzz less as opposed to not having the transformers lined up? Thanks!
