title says it all. I've used this thing for years and never had an issue except for the FX Loop seemingly stopped working properly recently.
Played a show last Saturday. Got back, unloaded the trailer, and I was then out of town for about a week. The guys had jammed while I was away, and I noticed upon return, that some jackhole just set the amp on the concrete floor and it sat there for at least 3 days. The jam space gets cold, its a fricken shed.
Anyway, I set everything back up the other day to practice, and low and behold - the amp is making popping noises. Very similar to a bad cable or the 'pop' when you'd turn a PA system on and the speakers 'pop'. My cables, I'm 95% sure, are all good. The tubes are sorta old....but I've heard tube noise before and this is unlike any that I've heard.
Suggestions? I'll retube soon and if that doesnt solve it I guess I need to send her out.
