The first port of call, and the easiest one to try a fix out on, would be the 12AX7 valve running the preamp. EDIT: Is this National Hartke Breakdown Week? This is the third one in three days!!!

OliverBlackman Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 i opened it up and it seemed fine and then put it back together and it worked ok. I used the same bass and same leads. If it starts again i think il take it to someone who actually knows how amps work, ie not me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
