Crackling Amp

Post by jeffro »

I have a fender Twin Reverb which yesterday started kinda cracking a little. today i messed around with it and found that its really only the low end thats causing the cracks and pops, and I was wondering if you guys had any remedies before I take it to the shop.

try a new cable, I think that might fix your problem, just a thought though
