Hi,
I've recently acquired a 69 Gemini GV22. Excellent clean sounding amp. I've sprayed all the pots ,switches, and tube sockets also dressed the tube posts with 400 sandpaper. But only ch 2 is working. The amp is dead quiet no pops, hissing etc. even after being on for a couple of hours.
When pushing it at above 6 or 7in volume, I did notice some distortion at hard attack moments. Otherwise very clean and good sounding amp.
Problem is Channel 1 is completely dead as if not even hooked up. You turn the volume up and hear nothing- no hum or hiss etc.
I would love to get this up and running again to hear that nice vibrato and reverb.
The original tank and foot switch are ,both look good too.
Any help to know where to start would be very helpful.
Thanks,
