Its the volume thing again, im just saving up to send it to lee.

My amp is broken again

Does anyone know how blink started off. Were they doing like backyard shows? And like what scene were they like performing for? Probably like a question for @daveyjones or someone that like saw them back in the day.

Was very close to selling it, and buying a jubilee.

I literally just come on here for the gear threads, but I got my vl502 back from the tech, it works now lmao.

Yeah its kinda crazy, there’s like none anymore. There’s one on gc for like 600, i think, but thats like it. But i legit got mine cause of this forum, i like found this forum cause i was researching the amp

I’ve been in contact with him, he said hed do the repair and heating issue stuff for like 220

Got the ampe back and it was working fine, had band practice. In the middle of band practice the volume starts getting super low and then high and making a hissing sound. I end up replacing all the pre amp tubes and it’s still doing it. Ima just send the thing to lee jackson.

Ok cool, I was looking into that pedal. I saw that you commented above about that one. I called the tech, he said I should just have to change my preamp tubes

I dont think it should be the pots, i just resoldered my volume pot. And when i play on my bedroom amp it seems fine.

Just got my amp back from another tech. He said it looked good and it was grounded. Was playing it today and the volume is acting weird. The amp keeps getting super loud and super quiet, It’s also like making this super loud hissing sound

Here’s a vid from my tech

Oh yeah sorry, I forgot there was a thread for it already.

Im probably too dumb and stupid to learn how to do it by myself. I’ll probably just end up selling it or something.

So i took my vl502 to get serviced, and have the hardwire thing done (so it doesnt catch fire). The amp tech refused to service it, cause it has a ton of sketchy mods done to it. What should i do ?
