Possible issue with my amp, looking for advice.

Bummer. When this happened with my Mark IV last year it leaked all over the board and shorted a bunch of shit. Was a $1,000 repair bill (about what I paid for the amp) from Mesa, insane! I almost didn't do it, but I like the amp too damn much to just scrap it.

Yeah I'm just glad it didnt hit my board. I had a friend that had an old rivera leak on the board, they replaced the board and only charged him $300. I was shocked. $1000 seems a little extreme though.

Not what I'm asking

What are you referring to in that photo as "a leaky cap" ?

I don't see it..

edit: Ok, you posted a different photo and I see the leaky cap now.

The black caps not the blue ones. You def have to open the photo.

Could be a whole host of things though. There was a thread not too long ago about ghost notes that was pretty interesting. I was also going to ask if you've tried a different guitar too (ie set up issue).


EDIT: Never mind. I see your edit now in red.
