Just finished KOC's version of an AC15, Volume, Treble, Bass & Cut.There is a weird, grating, distortion (only higher frequencies have this distortion) that sounds like small metal pieces shaking against each other, almost like a tambourine being shaken very softly. If I roll the cut so the tone is on the bass end, the amp plays fine. Nice clean or dirty tones depending on how much volume is applied. I tried pulling the cut pot & cap out of the circuit and that didn't fix it.
If I position the cut pot so it is wide open, the treble pot comes into play. If it is in the middle position, the grating distortion is at its strongest. If I roll the treble all the way down, no problem, OR, if I roll it all the way up, it goes away, but only at the 0 or 10 positions.
Any ideas on a good place to start looking?
