Sounds like dirty pots. Not a major problem usually, you can get cleaning sprays (usually Carbon-Tet, IIRC) that you can use, the difficulty maybe in gaining access to the pots in order to properly clean them. If they'r really bad, though, they may need to be replaced. Best bet is to take it to an amp tech to have it checked out.
