need amp help
| Message Board > General Chitchat > need amp help |
| t. burrfoot | Here's a question for the amp experts: I play a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. The clean channel's fine, but the distorted channels crack in and out. I already took her down to L&M to try new tubes, and no change. Cracked 'er open, and no loose wires I can see. Any suggestions? - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 12:29pm | ||
| Ian McG User Info... | Take it down to Bill Johnson's shop, he' s good at fixing those kinds of things. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 1:03pm | ||
| Ian McG User Info... | Oh, just in case you don' t know where Bill's shop is, it' s Victoria Vintage Guitars & Amps 2005 Fernwood, behind the George & Dragon - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 1:06pm | ||

| Virge | tube amps usually have to be re-biased after you put new tubes in them, that may be the problem. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 3:08pm | ||
| josh | check your preamp tubes try new ones. preamp tubes cause that crackling/cutting out probably 80% of the time - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 3:42pm | ||
| josh User Info... | if you already tried new preamp tubes, check the components in the bias circuit (resistors, caps, etc) for the preamp channel thats acting up. The problem will most likely be there. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 3:48pm | ||
| t. burrfoot | Thanks for the help. I went to Olde Thyme guitars, and it's no more. Same with that other guitar shop that was across the road. Too bad, they were nice guys. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 5:07pm | ||
