I have a Fender Twin Re-issue. It has started making an occasional noise that seems to be happening more often. The best way to describe it is that it sounds like a camp fire inside my amp. Crackles and pops. It's not real loud, but it is enough to tick off the sound guy and be very annoying.
The tubes dont have alot of hours on them. I just had the amp serviced a couple months ago for a problem with the amp switching between channels spontaniously.
Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Do a pencil tap on your tubes and see if you get any noise. If this does'nt get results, pull each tube seperatly and you should be able to narrow it down to the culprit.(if it's a tube prob). Hope this helps. 8) Mike

Hi there, If you can check out the other Twins thread, I think we can get you both up and running. A good start would be the previous advise of cleaning all the tube pins(sockets). Okay? ART
