I've recently noticed that when playing my various amps, every now and then the signal will completely cut out for a few seconds. It's very random, and does not last long, but I was curious what could be causing this.
I thought it might be cables, but I plugged different cables to see and it still happened. I also tried different guitars, so it was not the output jack on the guitar either.
The only thing constant in all rigs/combinations I tried was a daisy chained adapter powering just 2 pedals on one plug. Is this my problem? Or perhaps my Tube Driver pedals 12ax7 tube needs changing?
Or could the tubes in my amps be going bad? They are probably older tubes but I plan to change soon. If it helps, the amps I'm using for reference are a Fender Twin RI and a Matchless dc-30. Any suggestions, or advice would be greatly appreciated.
