Hello everyone, i'm new around here (been lurking a long time :) )

I just bought a new 57 twin amp, and im loving every second i play it (with my cs gilmour strat :D sorry had to say it)
There's one thing however i dont get (i've tried searching this forum and google for the answer without succes)
Im not getting any volume on any of the channels or inputs below 3.
The amp only gives sound when the volume knob is slightly after 3.
Im no tech, but is this the way it is supposed to be or is there something wrong with the pots ?

If this is a stupid question because its been answered somewhere already, i apologize and will appreciate the forwarding.

Thanks...

In my 57 Twin volume should be at least 2 when it gives any sound, if treble and bass are about 12 o'clock. Treble and bass controls may also affect overall volume.

This is fairly normal in my experience, although 3 sounds a little high...

Unfortunately, most amps' volume pots are not 'smooth audio tapers'.
