Hi Everyone,
I own a Laney LC30-II Valve/Tube Amplifier. It is an amazing Amp and I sadly/stupidly sat on it for too long on it during band practise (covering the tube vent) which has led the amp's sound to cut out and to have no apparant connection to the speaker (overheated?). All the lights light up fine and it looks like it should work, yet no sound at all!
I mainly tinker with guitars and have never worked on a tube amp before. Can someone point me in the right direction of how to fix this? Is it a common occurance? Is it an easy fix solution?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Nope, no easy fix.
Start by checking that your speaker works: unplug it (i think it uses a regular plug and cable permanently attached to the speaker) and touch the plug with a 9V battery: one terminal to the plug tip, the other to plug body, your speaker must click.
