So. Here's the thing. I SURE hope it's not an LDR problem. But I got my amp. Old tubes. The original owner says he hasn't played it since the 80s.
I plug it in. All seems fine. Except there's NO dirt or hair on R2. Volume? Sure. Breakup - not unless Volume is past 8 and Master is at 10.
Lead channel SEEMS fine. I THINK it's okay. There's a bunch of dirt there. Not as much saturation as I was expecting - but beautiful nonetheless.
I'm off to check the tubes now. I'm praying that's all it is! But - if it's not - will an LDR give itself away when it fails?
