Members 1001gear Posted December 12, 2013 Members Share Posted December 12, 2013 A pedal can wear out the front end with too high an output level or the boosted spectra /playing loud can cause something else to give - or not at all. Have a tech diagnose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapbladder Posted December 12, 2013 Members Share Posted December 12, 2013 Distortion always destroys amps. That is why you should never use a compressor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
