The amp popped when ever I stuck my probe on the leads ( Scaring the crap out of me! haha) is that the popping noise normal?
When checking the volts, the amp had a very quiet hum but my house has horrible power! Every once in a while I would also here some RF noise from my cellphone but nothing major at all. When ever I played it the amp seems very bright even with the treble knob all the way down. It also does not seem to have a lot of effect on the tone until 3/4 of the way and up. Any thoughts on that? Thanks so much for Yalls time!!!!

Re: AB763 Deluxe Reverb Build Questions
on both Channels It seems like both the bass and treble knobs won't do anything until 7.5 - 10 on the dials the amp does not sound that great. really bright! any idea what could be wrong?

Might want to post a pic of your tone control wiring. Sound like there might be a mistake there.
