Hi
I bought a Trem-o-Verb Head (not sure which year, SN around 11.900) a couple of weeks ago and it worked fine without the loop but as soon as I would run my pedals trough the loop (Marshall Echohead & Boss Ce-5) it would start to get moody . It started to cut off in the middle of playing . After playing around with it for a while i figured out that when I play around with the Send Pot the problem goes away. Now it started to get worse and the only way I can get it to play right is when I have the Send Pot all the way up. Now My pedals still work fine but I can't get a clean tone out of the Amp and it's always a bit crunchy. When I turn the Gain down more it's much to quiet and it just doesn't sound good anymore.
The lead channel (I have Channel Cloning set to "Red To Vintage") doesn't sound right either. When I play simple Powerchords it sound ok but as soon as I play a more structural chord or even if I play some single note Metal stuff the higher notes sound terrible.
Does anyone know if this could simply be caused by a faulty Send Pot or would the problem be more complex than that?
Hope someone can help
Oh and I might have to add that I live in Europe so I have to run it through a transformer. Don't think that would have anything to do with it since it works fine without the Loop but you never know
