Buzz in channel 3 on a triple rectifier

[MesaTim]

Of course when we go to start our show last week I start getting a buzz and a small sputter here and there in channel three. I'm assuming it's the v3 pre-amp tube. Suggestions?

Gently tap ALL tubes to find the bad one(s).

You sure there is no interference on the AC outlet?

 

[MesaTim]

Yeah I know it's not the power. I tried different guitar cables, guitars, speaker cables, power chords and outlets. I tried it at our practice space and at home. Just bought a new set of tubes. they were all 5 years old anyway.

 

[Gnarkill3k6]

That fixed the problem I asume?

 

[MesaTim]

Changed the tubes. Nice and quite. lol well as quite as a triple rec gets. But no buzz.

 

[Gnarkill3k6]

Hmm... what do you mean by as quite as a triple gets? Mine is pretty quite, as in very little hiss or other "amp noise". :?:

Exactly. There are probably a lot more noisy amps out there ...

The joke was that triple recs play very loud...

oh it was a joke...
