If you are not familiar with electronics repair, please go carefully. Or find someone with more experience to help you.
Make sure the amp is un-plugged from any power sources.
Discharge any power supply capacitors before letting your bare hands near their terminals
Use care if you are soldering on any circuit boards.
If you're unsure about what you are doing, don't do something that can't be reversed.

I'm not trying to discourage you from a "do-it-yourself" project, just don't get in over your head. When i said yes those are the screws i was subtly my means of a psychic link through our corresponding texts telling you all that :D]]> Guitar Players Discussion kidwithaBCRICH https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361482 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361478 Tue, 07 Dec 2010 08:11:48 +0000

I had the same amp, i ripped it apart and made a box guitar out of it when it died but for you id suggest poping off the cover and making sure everything is soldered on correctly, This brand is pretty unreliable but usualy it will last forever getting more and more unreliable if you have a soldering iron.

Someone asked about amps, id go with the marshall, im not a big fan of fender anymore and marshalls are great amps
What part do i take apart there is a silver thing on the back that has screws is that what i take apart?]]> Guitar Players Discussion jefferygibsonsg https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361476 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361456 Mon, 06 Dec 2010 07:55:07 +0000

The next most likely thing I can think of is a problem in the amp's power supply. I'd look at a bad capacitor in the power supply, if I were working on it. No i have not tried playing it in some one else's house but i will try it.]]> Guitar Players Discussion jefferygibsonsg https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361451 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-me-5/#post-361442 Sun, 05 Dec 2010 22:20:57 +0000
