Noisy Fender Supersonic

I recently purchased a Fender Supersonic head. I know valve amps are noisier than solid state but the clean channel on the amp, especially the Bassman setting has lots of background hiss. Even with no guitar plugged in and the volume completely off, there is a hiss that is very loud. The lead channel is fine and I have checked cables, different speakers, different wall socket, etc.

Fender vs. Jackson

I am home sick today and it's finals week...so naturally I had nothing better to do. I decided to A/B both of my guitars today with a riff that I just wrote and used the same exact plugs/settings on all tracks, even the settings on my amp didn't change.

Let me know what you think good or bad.

But now I'm working on a new song. what I'm trying to do is plug my 1960's fender amp into my mac so i can get the same distorted sound that the amp produces. the amp has a plugin the back for EXT.
