I have a red stripe Mark III head with graphic EQ and reverb. Over the past few months, it has been doing this strange thing where, when you turn off the power switch, it doesn't turn off. At first, it'd work after turning the power switch on and off a few times and eventually it'd finally shut off.
Today, however, at band practice, the amp functioned perfectly fine ..... no dropouts, no bad tone, nothing out of the ordinary..... but, when I tried to power it down, it wouldn't power down AT ALL. The power and standby would be off, but the amp's blue light was still on and you could tell that the amp was still on, although no sound would come out because the standby switch still works. If I turn on the standby switch, I can get sound. So, I think the problem is only with the power switch and not the standby switch.
Any ideas?
