Posted: Wed May 27, 2009 6:46 am
I have an Orange AD30HTC with an Avatar 2x12 (x2 alnico Golds 50watt speakers)... it sounds amazing.... i love my tone...
But recently during a practice session, I seemed to have lost a lot of my volume/power.....
I play with a full band... the lead guitar plays a fender blues deluxe 1x12 and i can't even hear my self playing with the full band anymore...
I used to be the one that was asked to turn down...
I have to have my volume at MAX 10-11 and gain at 10-11 just to compete now...
Before i would sit nicely at 8 on volume and gain. maybe even 9. and i could easily have a enough volume to be rhythm...
Now i can harldy if at all hear myself... my guitar still sounds great tone wise i just dont have the power i once had.
is it possibly my Tubes going bad... any suggestions... should i take it to a local amp tech.
