Buy one of those orange plugs for a few dollars at any hardware store. I have not experienced hum with my Real Tube pedal but other 3 pronged devices have caused hum in my fx chain. My BK Butler Real Tube has a 3 prong plug and the transformer is internal. I wonder if the noise could be a simple ground loop. Make sure you test it w/o any other gear just guitar, pedal and amp to elim. I plug everything into the same power strip. Is the WW plugged into the same outlet as your other gear?
OP - can you post a video on You Tube? Was the pedal always noisy, or are you just noticing it? Have you tried the pedal in a different location (another room)? Sometimes you can pickup noise radiated from outside sources (cell phones that are close, noise from other gear, etc.). Is a wall wart there isn't much inside the pedal that can/should rattle around. Other units use a wall wart, so the xfmr. MacDaddy - Does your unit have an internal or external xfmr? Some models were powered by 120 VAC, so the xfmr. Butler reissue of the 911 Tube Driver from 2006. Shown above (left to right) - The 1985 BK Butler Tube Driver, the revised 1986-87 BK Butler Tube Driver, the unauthorized 1988 knockoff made by Chandler after Butler parted ways with them, the 1990s Tube Works 911 Tube Driver, and a B.K. There are a lot of versions of this pedal and its variants, but if you search the web, there's tons of good info to help identify the good ones.
Works best with an already slightly breaking up amp to my ears. I have an orginal Chandler 'designed by B.K.
