As others have said, it’s hard to beat a stock 800 with the right pedal.
I’ve had JVMs (twice), a Splawn Nitro, currently have a Deliverance 60 (may be up for sale soon) and hopefully soon an Engl Blackmore.
The Nitro had an amazing low end, but it gets kind of old after a while and then amp...
So, here are some pictures of the underneath of the socket and then the top. I’m pretty sure it’s an issue with a few of the metal pins, but might as well and get the socket replaced.
Is there any harm in playing the amp through the low input like this?
I was going to discharge caps and resistors with a resistor and wire to ground, but duly noted.
As is, I wouldn’t mind getting my inputs shielded, so might as well have a tech take care of everything.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
Yep, compared to the other sockets, the troubled one has more give. I can get sound back for a few seconds before it fades away.
Upon further inspection it looks like a few of the metal contacts are popping up, so perhaps I can try to tighten those before...
So, I was messing around with preamp tubes in the V1 of my Mojotone 800 and all of the sudden I lost sound.
Going back to my original tube it looks like only half of the first preamp tube lights up and I only get sound in the low sensitivity input, but not the high.
All other preamp and power...
