jeff	Re: UPDATE & ideas ??? snarlin' Pro-Reverb hey all, i replaced the preamp tube socket, the volume pot, and the power tubes but that was not the problem. I can 'originate' the problem: (Loud pulsating feedback, LOW frequency only, and the power tubes actually pulsate - like in a brown- face Princton when the tremelo is on) ONLY by putting the Volume on 7 or more AND the bass control on 5 or more and then hitting the low E string heavy. I suspect that the "circuit card" has become conductive but only goes crazy with a really strong and bassy signal pumped thru it. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

hey all,

i replaced the preamp tube socket, the volume pot, and the power tubes but that was not the problem.

I can 'originate' the problem:

(Loud pulsating feedback, LOW frequency only, and

the power tubes actually pulsate - like in a brown-

face Princton when the tremelo is on)

ONLY by putting the Volume on 7 or more AND the bass control on 5 or more and then hitting the low E string heavy.

I suspect that the "circuit card" has become conductive

but only goes crazy with a really strong and bassy signal

pumped thru it. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
