Hello, wondering if anyone can help / offer some advice.
My fender Hotrod deluxe has seemingly lost it's sound, upon powering up it is just a really tinny sound, swapped leads / pedals / guitars to check if it was them, but it still sounds like a wasp in a jar. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Could be lots of things :(

Any noise when you turn pots ? Yes= dirty pot = loss of sound ; spray contact cleaner

Check if every tubes are well seated in their socket .

Remove each tube and clean their sockets contact with electronic / electric contact cleaner in spray .

Check all tubes by putting new ones.

Power supply issue ; see a qualified tech
Phase inverter issue ; see qualified tech

Do your test with guitar direct in amp NO pedal , nothing , only guitar .

This sounds like it worked fine, then had a problem?

The tubes are the usual first suspects.......
