Some of you may remember my MKIIC from a while ago- its an export, 60w, reverb, so pretty bare bones. When i got it, it turned out someone had modded it quite extensively- and to top it off it had an early circuit board so it took me along time to find a schem (someone from here finally helped me out big time).
Fast forward 6 months, it spent 3 months in the techs getting returned to original condition, only for me to get it and realise it still wasn't right (no volume, eg I could run the master on 10 and it was comfortable bedroom level).
So it went in again, I got it back, it worked ok for a couple of weeks (without sounding great, just ok). Then I turn it on about 2 weeks ago, and the thing is buzzing like crazy- but it finally sounds good :evil:
The buzz is not related to the reverb, presence, eq or gain controls- its only related to the master volume. But it's seriously loud- any idea what it could be?
I've done a full retube with no success, plus it has had a full cap job in the past year, so I don't think its in there. Any other ideas?
thanks guys, I'm just loathe to take it back to the repair man again....
