Default electrical problem? Please help.

We just moved into a 60 year old house and discovered that my
daughter's electric guitar and amplifier won't work properly. There'a
a loud hum coming from the amplifier. It stops when she puts her
hands over the strings, but starts up as soon as she removes her
hands. Could this be a grounding problem? Any suggestions? (There's
nothing wrong with the guitar or the amplifier. She also has a bass
guitar and a bass amplifier and the same problem is occuring with
them too). Thanks.


It does sound like a grounding problem.
