sonsman Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Hi, I have a UK made 7215 which was working fine at a gig on Thursday evening but at Friday's gig had gone extremely quiet and I ran straight through the PA to do the gig. I have tried obvious checks like changing leads, instruments etc but it's not that. I am not technical at all - any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Check the fuses inside of the amp first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subthumper Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Try a patch lead in the FX send and return sockets, if it's quite it could be that. Then as suggested check fuses, if it's not that then try another speaker cab. If it's none of these get a tech to have look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsman Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Thanks for the suggestions guys. I went back to the amp and before starting to unscrew things I thought I would try it again and lo and behold loads of volume! How bizarre. I'm worried now though that I have an intermittent fault which will raise it's head again. Maybe a good excuse for GAS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonBassAlpha Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 It's clearly not fubar then, good news! It will probably be a dry joint somewhere or a slightly iffy socket. Any decent tech would be able to go over it and make it good as new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those old TE amps used 'off the shelf' components that any tech will be able to get hold of as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
