Ok, so I have a Laney LV200 amp and it has major issues with pots that scratces, I have tried the elecronic spray you get, and it only works a while then it scratches so much I rather pay on my acoustic.
Ok, so I gather I need to replace the pots, but rather than take it in to the local music shop for repair I thought it might be a good idea to do it myself...the amp is not under warranty anyway, has no sentimental value so if I break it then I hopefully learned something.
and with this all I hope to learn a bit regarding amps and maybe how to build my own valve amp...it may take long but it can be a fun and fruitfull experience at least.
So what do you guys recommend with regards to the amp repair? also, if I build my own valve amp, what wattage should it be and where in SA can I order a kit maybe to build my own? Or even just the rough estimate of parts prices since I can build my own cab...
Thanks in advance for any advice ?
