I got this amp in 1995..Since then,,it has went dead from the Diodes over heating,,Blown a Transistor..Has severe noise problems with the reverb tank,,Sounds like Rice Crispies.but loud..The input jack Knacked up and I had to get another soldered to the circuitboard but getting any signal is hit and miss. and involves a lot of cable wiggling and prodding..I do have a new spare part,Fender Input jack.
I use this amp mainly for the Clean channel..Do I just give up on it..Or do any of you guys know any tweaks and repairs to make this a fuss free amp..Or do I start saving for that Blackface Deluxe Reverb re issue..To be honest when working for clean this amp sounded great anyway.The distortion was good too but the territory between the two is a bit non existent.
Any experience and advice would be welcomed,My knowledge of electronics is very limited so I would have to put it into a repairman..So to get everything sorted it could be pricey..If it's just a case of replacing the reverb tray that would be fair enough..

Regards Goatbreath..
