| Larry....What you are describing appears to be a common problem with the older 400 series. There are two effects loops on your amp usually labelled "pre gain" and "post gain". The jacks on the loops will become dirty over a period of time (especially if not used regularly)and cause occasional volume drops. You might try inserting short patch cords to bridge the circuits on both loops (send to return) and see if the problem stops. If so, it is a simple matter of having the jacks cleaned or just leave the patch cords installed.....Best of luck. |

Larry, I would highly recommend,you send your amp to Ken Fox, and let him put a mod kit ,and go over your amp, you"ll be sooooooo glad you did. I have a nashville 400, ken worked it over. man what a difference. My amp is awsome. tone is great.When i"m out playing, I don"t run higher than 2,on my volume.Ken is a great guy to do business with. I had it back in a week . I wont part with my amp. Love that amp now.Tk
