Have a used Mojo kit deluxe reverb clone amp for almost a year now, it has been working pretty well, have been through some tubes. Don't know about the bias setting.
Just the past 2 weeks have been getting crackling on the amp at loud volume as I hit E or D chords - crackling starts when strings are hit, goes away quickly until next "strum".
Don't have a amp tech anymore so trying hard myself.
Did a bunch o' research today about "crackling" on the TGP, so I bought some Deoxit D5 at radio shack, did that dance, retensioned the rectifier and power tube sockets per BillM's website, then resoldered the V2, power and rectifier tube sockets (don't use V1 tube).
Tried different cords, guitars, speakers, hit the speaker plug with Deoxit, tried the chop stick poke around deal.
No progress, still crackles.
Any other suggestions other than do it all again?
thanks a bunch, Fred
