any good amp tech in LA to work on trainwreck express clone?

Post by rwijaya »

So to makes the story short, i had a clone that is build by my friend that when it finished build, it has hum when its on even without having any guitar plugged in. So just turning on the amp the amp produces lots of hum noise.

something is definitely is not right here. So any recommendation who should i take this amp to get it fix and work properly?

thank you in advance.

i have met bill yates at his house, i asked him about this amp before, and he told me, he has not take any more repairs for this type of amp anymore.

so i don't think bill yates would be the guy. any other guy beside bill?

oh and by the way, the amp i have is not ceriatone kit (every time that word got mentioned it seems to spark an interesting argument and resentment with any amp tech i talked with here). its build from parts that i bought from here in amp garage member. has pacific transformers and all the right parts. its just not running the way its suppose to be. any help on who to take this amp to will be appreciated. especially the person that has tons of knowledge on trainwreck express build.
