I have noticed my Mustang I keeps turning on the Chorus effect randomly while playing the amp stand alone. Nothing plugged in other than a guitar. I have reset to Factory settings multiple times and updated firmware. Very annoying. Has anyone else found a cure to this problem. The amp is only 6 months old.

It sounds like it needs to be replaced.

The chorus is the first effect you turn on with the mod knob so maybe it's sitting in a place that somehow makes it think the knob got turned a tad. I'd try making sure the knob was turned all the way off and if that didn't work, out of curiosity, I'd try turning the knob all the way to the other direction and turn the effect off with fuse. Of course that wouldn't really solve the problem but that's what I would do.

It's a good thing that the Mustang comes with a great warranty.

I'd definitely get it to a service center. That pot may be bad. Fortunately, it's an easy fix.
