Crate Amp GLX65

[luisalgomez]

How you doing I have a Crate GLX65 Guitar Amp. It has been in storage for quiet some time. Okay here is the problem. The input jack into the amp fell in. I seem to have lost the protruding nut from the amp. I replaced it using one from a pedal that no longer functioned. The mute buttons seems to be stuck. I turn on the amp and sound does come out but on a scale from 1 to 10 it is about a 2. I don't have the cash to take it in to a tech so they can tell me it could be something I could have done at home. . .any ideas. . .
Thanks

Welcome to the place.

If your amp has an FX loop, take a spare guitar cord and plug it in from the send to the return jack. If this brings back the volume, the jacks need to be cleaned.
