[QUOTE="Revvv, post: 16120981, member: 189537"] Can you post a pic of the front of the amp? I want to see the settings if that's OK with you. There could be something simple you're missing. Also try a different cable. Working with music is my day job. If I'm not recording or mixing, I am installing equipment, and sometimes doing a few repairs. I have found stuff as simple as dirty pots and switches, to resistors that have gone bad. Humidity and heat can also damage a solid state amp head. I have personally gone on stage and found myself without sound. Power was on, standby was off, all speaker wires connected, etc. I turned the master full right, and cranked the gain, and nothing. That was the first time I saw my EQ knobs all turned to the left. EQ knobs are volume controls for different frequencies. Another time I had a head phone jack stick on an amp. The crossover would not allow the signal flow to the main speaker. That little feature was removed when I got home. My greatest blunder was one we have all done, but refuse to admit. I plugged in my pedals, ran a cable to the head, an then looped my guitar cable through the strap. I normally play an active bass, so they are unplugged unless I'm playing. I looked for an issue for 15 minutes. I didn't have the chord plugged into the guitar. I was impressed with myself. No one let me live that down the rest of the night.
