I have a SBEQ that I bought used off TGP that is in need of repair. It produces a static sound when plugged in, both when it's on or off. Wasn't sure where to post this, but I want to get the pedal repaired ASAP. Thanks.

you mean like an on going random bacon frying sort of sound ?
are you on battery or power supply ?? have you tried other supplies and or batteries ??

It's more like a crackling "electricity" type noise then sizzling bacon or a white noise.
Input and Output jacks are tight.
Powering the pedal with a Pedal Power, inline with other pedals.
The On/Off switch makes a loud click when engaged, and the pedal will make crackling noises when tapped.
Noise occurs whether the pedal is on or off.
