I had a terrible thing happen to my Mark IV combo a while ago. Went to a friends house to jam, had fun, left my Mark IV combo there. Didnt grab it for a week or so, came back, it was moved into another room in the basement, had a fucking footprint on it. Shrugged it off, took it up.
Next time I fired it up, I could smell something burning. It only kicked in when I engaged the lead channel. And after a few moments the amp would cut out completely, cutting back in occasionally and dying out again. REALLY pissed now.
The burning smells like plastic, or solder. Real shitty smell. Asked my friend whhat the fuck happened. He said he had a party/show there, someone went to turn my amp on and apparently it "sparked and started smoking." Assholes!
Some people have told me it sounds like the transformer is shot. Sounds like an expensive fix. So I need some NYC area recommendations if you guys dont mind!
