Um. that's not good. I'd check to make sure you wall socket is wired/grounded properly. Reverse wiring in a socket can do bad things. If your wiring is fine at the wall, then there's a short in your amp somewhere. Amps can give off a doozy of a shock - so don't this sort of thing lightly, especially if you notice you're getting shocked more often - indicator the problem is getting worse. Have your amp checked out.

I'm not an expert on this, but you should definitely check if the wall sockets and grounded. Also, you need to check your amp as well, and the guitar. It could be that guitar is not properly grounded, and that amp is sending some small bit of electricity. Could be the pedals as well if you are using them.

The main concern I have with getting shocks like this is the path from your guitar to ground (your feet) is thru your heart... amps pack enough juice to be dangerous, and while it is extremely rare to be seriously injured (or worse!), I highly recommend getting to the bottom of whether it's a grounding issue, starting with your wall socket.
