A friend has a 1965 Deluxe Reverb. I played it 10 years ago and it was fine.
It is not being used and is in a humid basement in NY.
Last week, on vacation, I turned it on...not working. Red light was out but decided to look at tubes.
Some tubes were hot. Plugged in a guitar (same cable I used last time).
The reverb crackled loud. I heard guitar through amp (virtually NO volume) but controls did nothing.
Reverb crackles were super loud. Turned off reverb. no more noise.guitar barely heard.
I hear it is a great amp.
Wonder if anyone has a brilliant idea of what should be done with amp.
