Lately I’ve been experiencing crackling noises after playing my amp for about 20 minutes. My current setup is as follows:
Guitar -> Rack pre-amp unit -> effects unit -> rack power amp -> cabinet
The pre amp is tube, so I tried replacing the tubes, no dice
Power amp is solid state, so no tubes to look at there
Cords are only a couple months old
The crackling doesn’t start immediately it takes a little, but once it starts it quickly gets progressively louder until I turn the amp off, any idea what’s the cause?
P.S. Preamp from the 80’s, Lee Jackson perfect connection
