Thanks for the help man. I opened 'er up and there is carbon on the power tube sockets. doesn't seem to be any signs of burnt components on the board, but I don't really know what i'm looking for, so I'm not gonna mess with it. I'll take it to my buddy tomorrow.Man, I hope my tranny's ok. New set of Svets down the drain. Wish I had been drunk, then at least I'd have an excuse. This sux.
