Not the easiest thing to photograph. I've had some issues with the drive circuit in my Fafner and I noticed there was a small red cable that was soldered to one of the transistors near the drive circuit. It feels like a really small cable compared to the other circuitry in the amp so I was wondering if anyone else's looked like that? The actual fault is volume fluctuations when switching the drive switch and the amp making buzzing/crackling sounds on specific frequencies.

I genuinely could not recommend getting a good power supply enough. Couple of recommendations from me would be Truetone CS6. Has a proper kettle lead power input Comes with loads of cables Fits under a pedaltrain nano Has blue LEDs so your pedalboard will look like a 00s boy racer hatchback with neon lights Cioks DC7 Not cheap but about as good a supply as you can get. Powers my quad cortex, expression pedal and overdrive pedal and the noise is minimal.

Thanks for the responses guys. On recent gigs I haven't had any issues with the amp. In regards to a leaky cap hopefully this is the sort of thing a decent amp tech would check during a service. I will enquire with sickamps

Thank you that makes sense. My rig sounds much better now! Shout-out to sickamps.com in Harlow

Had my EBS Fafner serviced recently and the tech said there was 1.5v DC offset present. I have an ok understanding of electronics but it's something I've never really understood. Amp sounds much cleaner now it's below 100mV

Hey everyone all of the parts have now been sold/donated apologies I didn't update the post last night as I was out gigging. Will update post now Lewis

I've Just DM'd Rob. Just for clarity sake some of the bits might not work so I can't guarantee anything Lewis

3 boxes of bass/guitar parts. A basic list of what is included: Fender player plus bass preamp Mayonnes bass preamp Switchcraft jack sockets Battery compartments Wires Knobs Pots (some might be broken) If you want it let me know. Can post or collection from Hertfordshire AL6 just off A1

That's a super nice gesture! Just a thought, have you considered donating them to a school so they could be used for many years to come? I'm a teacher myself and I know how much it benefits the kids to be able to play through "proper" gear. Lewis

That's a good question I'm not sure which overdrive its based off, you may well be right. £159 is very decent in my opinion

Recent board build with some new additions. Peterson Strobostomp Mini Origin Effects Cali76 compact bass Boss OC2 Rosenberg LDP CB/OD Any other Rodenberg users out there?
