I have the Mesa Mark IIc+, a Marshall JMC 800 and a Marshall JCM 2000.

I cant get any of them to play. Even trying several diff guitars.

I checked continuity of several cords and the fuses.

this is the weirdest thing I've ever experienced.

I'm beginning to stink there is some off world force going on here.

H__E__L__P!!!!!!

I'm gonna solder up a cord. If that doesn't work I'm just gonna put all this in storage and worry bout it later.

The only **** thing that works these days is my Martins, my Gallagher, and my Hatfield and my pups.

Something you can depend on. Yeah!

At least the Mesa is putting out power. Can hear at the speaker.

Not so the 2 marshalls.

I never had a prob with amps till I got these dual and quad cabs sent up from Seattle music store.

Think i'll take the backs off and just see if the speakers are working and wired correctly. I've play a good bit thru both tho.

Weird.

Before open the cabs, try to test it with a 9V battery, simply short both pin of the speaker jack with the 9v.

You'll hear a clic if the speakers work.

D2dark,

Thanks for the tip. It worked. May have worked to good. Kinda loud.

I am a little concerned they are wired correctly inside. That music store in Seattle cld have put any type speakers in there. However, I have no reason to believe the did.

probally somthing so simple you/ll kick yourself when u find it

I know it..it's frustrating when the muse strikes and ya cant play ha!.

Seems like I rem you cld measure the resistance on the 1960AX cab and the 2x12 cab via the plug and tell if it was ok. Like a reading of 1.????/ Ohms or some such.
