Hello,
so my wiz mtl suddenly loses volume almost completely. I can power it down then turn it back on and the volume comes back (slowly but it comes back). Does this sound like tubes?
thanks!
 
I'd start with preamp tubes...one at a time. If you don't find a bad one move on to a new set of power tubes.
 
I had an issue with my MTL doing the same thing. My problem was the effects loop. When it happens plug a jack in and out of the send and return and tell me if it fixes it. It will keep happening if it's the same issue as mine. I think just very slightly bending the jack tip fixed mine and it hasn't happened in a year. It was either that or lead dress. I can't remember exactly as I have worked on quite a few amps since then.
