The Foreplay 1 and 2 didn't have instructions to tie signal common to chassis ground. It was done by many of us and was often posted as a possibility for reducing hum. However, it could increase hum in a Foreplay 1/2 in certain cases that indicated other problems.

The Foreplay III has signal common and chassis ground tied together through the ground bus. So if it is properly assembled, it is grounded.

You didn't mention which generation you have.
