Hi,
My main question is how to ground a 2-prong if the electrical utility originally was a 3-prong, but the grounder fell off?
The story is that I went to this new music studio and played the electric guitar while singing in the mic. The mic shocked me. I guess something wasn't properly grounded. not sure of exact physics.
And this got me thinking, because next week I'm playing an outside gig, and we're using a piano amp as the amplifier for the vocals. and this piano amp originally had a 3-prong cord, but the grounder fell off, and so it's just a 2-prong cord now. (this would mean that it's not grounded i guess)
So, If I'm singing through this, and playing the electric guitar at the same time, I'm guessing that the mic would shock me again. would it?
so, how could i ground this?
thanks
