Thanks for all the ideas. This friend has about 30 years of experience as a player and sound tech. He's baffled so the amp is heading to the tech. Hopefully it's something simple.

A friend is about to head out on tour and is having a problem. it's a dual rectifier head through a dual rec cab with vintage 30s. Basically, with the bass, mid and treble all at 12 o' clock, whenever A 440 is palm muted, i.e the open A string or 5th fret on the E string, there's an INSANE...

So I did the Reeder Mods 1 and 2 a couple of weeks ago, and then immediately left town for a week so I couldn't check out the amp. I spent a week worrying that I wouldn't like it. The only way I could not stress about it was reminding myself that it was easily reversible. So I 've been playing...
