Hi guys,
Having a problem with my Mark V's channel 2 where the sound is cutting out. I switch to the channel and I have sound briefly but it then drops completely - and returns if I touch the gain knob or switch wattage settings or turn the EQ on and off, then drops again after 10 seconds or so. None of the other rotary knobs affect it and work as normal. The channel also doesn't sound (albeit listening in the brief seconds it works) particularly great.
I have replaced power tubes and appropriate preamp tubes for channel 2 and the problem persists. It doesn't happen on the other channels and they sound fine.
Any ideas? I'm out of warranty now (us UK buyers only get 1 year!) so trying to avoid sending it to a repair shop Luckily I don't use channel 2 all that much!
