Hmm... it sounds like you have checked all of the things I would suggest. I have had the little wire inside the reverb tank come loose from the tiny transformer inside the tank on a Fender but that would result in no sound - you have some sound, correct?

I think it may be amp tech time....

Tech time it is then.

It's difficult to help you further really, a shame. Good luck getting it sorted.
