Sure could use your expertise.
I was playing my JTM 45 clone, happy as a clam. Unbeknownst to me...my 3-year-old maxed out the level and gain controls on my Tonebender fuzz pedal on the old pedalboard. I went to hit the Tonebender for a lead break, not realizing she had goosed the controls and this obviously sent an unintended and serious jolt of juice to the front-end of the amp.
I killed the pedal after a huge shriek, but now, where the amp was absolutely quiet as as a mouse before getting slammed with the maxed out Tonebender, there is an extremely pronounced and audible hiss - completely not normal prior to the Tonebender overdose.
The amp still plays, but there is this definite hiss, where before it was super quiet. I shut down the amp, immediately after the shreik, let everything cool, then fired it back up again and the hiss is defintely still there.
...any ideas on what I damaged?
Any expertise would be much appreciated,
Sean
