So picked up my used JP2C today from reputable (UK) shop...and for the 1st time ever just popped in picked up untried. I know.....
Anyway get home and 2 faults
One is a heavy background noise on channels 2 and 3 (2 being the noisiest) . It sounds like a non stop interference sound. The channels work and give a sound but with this continued background noise (I’m UK so hz issues not a problem)
Is this likely a preamp valve issue...or something worse
2nd issue is the foot switch. It changes channel but non of the lights on the foot switch, switch one so looking at the FS you wouldn’t know what channel you were one. But it switches channels, reverb, eq etc so performs all functions but no lights on the f/s other than when first powering up all leds flash
The store are excellent and will resolve..but they are a 4 hour round trip for me so just seeing if there are simple fixes her
