I am looking at this amp fpr a friend. Initially, when powered up it would make a horrible noise (and very loud) when a cable was inserted in input 1, and a lesser noise but some guitar signal making it through to the output when inserted in input 2.
I started looking at the schem. to see where I could start. When I went back to it this morning, it made a different (pretty loud) buzz. I powered it down and started removing the preamp tubes to see where the buzz would stop. No luck.
When I removed the power tubes the buzz was still there but at a much lower volume level.
The amp has a few other problems to note. 1) I tried inserting a signal into the "power amp in" jack and got no sound at all. 2) The Drive Switch does not have any affect, it is stuck in the "drive" mode.
If there are any new style Fender heroes out there, please throw me a bone.
Thanks,
Mike
