when I bought the amp, some of the pots were scratchy as hell. I cleaned them all with contact cleaner and replaced the od channel gain pot. When I use any sort of gain, or even an od pedal through the clean channel, there is a slight crackling noise in the ‘background’. Lets say I strum a chord using gain, as the notes are dying out I can hear, what can only be describes as a crackle, almost like a crackle on a radio station that isn’t quite tuned in.. The less gain I use, the worse it is.
any help appreciated!
Hello Nikki,
Regarding your MG100DFX, we have not had an issue with pots on this unit, but due to age the pots can crackle as they get worn out, we would recommend that it is taken to an engineer who check it over for you and replace any neccessary parts.
Kind Regards
