Hi Friends,
I've had a problem with this Princeton amp fading in an out after its been on about for about ten minutes. Today when it did that I gave it a couple whacks and it was okay. Played it for about 45 minutes and it was fine.I've had it from brand new. Never been out of my studio. I might add it's a solid state amp. I'd appreciate any help. I've called a couple local amp techs and nobody wants
to touch it. Tenn. Lee

When nothing's plugged into the preamp out or power amp in, this amp is known to be intermittent. Try plugging in a short guitar pedal cable at that spot.

Spray some contact cleaner and work a cable plug in/out.

If this doesn't solve the problem, you'll need to open the amp and check for bad solder joints at these connections or could be other spots.

If not tech savvy take it to an amp guru so you don't fry yourself.
