hi ive got a peavy bandit transtube 112 the older version i bought it from the pawn shop and its a great amp, but i plug in turn it on and start playing all of a sudden the volume goes down then a minute later it goes back up? no matter what channel its on or volume settings, and when it goes down u can still hear my playing but its like some invisible gremlin is turning the volume down!! i need to know if this is something where i can get a replacement part and fix myself or spend the MONEY for a guitar shop to fix it. i hope i given enough info for someone to help cause i really like this amp, thanks for any info you can give me, help me to play again AMPLIFIEDDDDDD!!!!
PV transtube WHAT 112?
You got an FX loop? Plug a cord from send to return. ANy help? Got a preamp out next to a power amp in jack? Plug a cord from pre out to power in. ANy help? Got an "insert" jack on the front? Plug something in and out of that a couple times. Does that bring the sound back? or if the amp was OK at first, does thart make it act up? (Note: it will cut out the signal while a plug is in the insert jack. SO just poke in and out.)
OK, it is a Bandit.
Looks to me like it has both sets of jacks - pre/power and the FX loop. DO the tests.
