any thought would be apperiaciated..:)Not trying to make anyone look bad but is the reverb/vibrato pedal plugged in? The vibrato oscillator is off without the RCA jack center pin grounded to the chassis.
If so, and you have a good tube in the vibrato preamp tube socket and it's cathode bypass caps are new, the most likely candidate is the LDR bug itself.
What Bruce said.
As soon as I saw the title, I though, "is the footswitch plugged in?"
In the Fender, the reverb footswitch turns the reverb OFF, but the tremolo footswitch turns the trem ON.
