If I had a cam id post the pictures but never have I had this happen with any amp I own.
Ok just got home from work went up stairs turned the amp on (Mark4 med. head) and went down to grab a beer and my smokes. The amp was in standby like always it was maybe warming up for about 2min tops.
I hit the standby switch off and grabbed my guitar by the neck with my fingers gripping the strings. It was instant fire, not a shock , intense heat so much that it burned 7 str imprints into my hand! I instantly dropped the guitar and was in shock, completely scared the **** out of me.
I grabbed the guitar by the base thinking i was going to catch the rug on fire but there was no sign of heat or anything? I lightly touched the strings and they were cold.
I though I was having a flashback but I looked back at my hand to still see the 7 strings burned across my fingers....
What the hell just happened? It has completely put me on edge now. I keep tapping my strings before i pick my guitar like it was a hot plate or something.
Has anyone ever had this happen? Should i have the amp looked at? Its been working flawless up to this point.
