Deoxit solved the issues. I’ve been playing it last night and all today and it’s been good. Man, I love this amp.

Yeah. Fortunately it was electrocuted at the old owners house and hopefully it’s pheromones were dissipated there and it won’t attract any to my house. 😄

Thanks. I’ll just build with the doghouse then.

Why do Marshalls and the like use can caps? I actually like the way Fender uses Axial caps under the dog house. Not only is it easier to work with, the grounding scheme is better and quieter. Is there any actual advantage to a can cap?

Already done, my brother. The biggest issue was the preamp tube sockets. Deoxit and plugging in and pulling the tubes fixed that up. I also did all the pots and removed the electrocuted bug. I am still planning to recap it just to keep it running without worry. I have a YUGE component order...

I consider Gibson a guitar company not a pickup company. In my opinion, all of their pickups are placeholders for real pickups. They are modernizing designs like this, i say it’s time for them to modernize their headstock and finally solve their tuning stability issues.

I’m over on the PA/OH border about 50 miles north of pixberg. (I don’t really say yinz though.)

You probably like that humbucker compression thing. The P90s are just a little too dynamic if you’re not used to them. My main guitar has Lollar P90s. I love it into high gain.

Yinz guys from pixberg?

For pedalboard, Mogami 2319 and these connectors: https://www.click4av.uk/connectors/jacplu01-pancake-mono-jack-plug/ I cannot find them in USA so I order them from UK. If anyone has a source in the USA hook me up. They’re the same plugs that Hosa uses for their 6” patch cable 6-pack.

I wonder if this had anything to do with the volume drop. 🤢

K.

I really didn’t mean to offend you.

Bro, I was joking. I do hate gunsnroses though.

No, that can’t be it.

Ok. Good news. Plugging a patch cable between the effects send and return takes away the issue. Probably just dirty jacks. I should still recap. I think this thing is 31 years old. 👴🏻

Have you ever tried a Dual Rectifier’s clean channel? I’m just happy this one is useful.

I will make that part of the plan.

yeah. The pots are crackly.

Crap. It’s cutting out. I still think it’s the channel switch. The speaker jacks are also badly worn. Barely holds the plug in. It’s in the preamp. I took out the power tubes and ran the preamp out too my Marshall effects loop return. I changed the tubes, too. Still cuts out. I’ve got some...
