    HOT AMPEG NEWS! PF20T, PF50T, PF112HLF

    I got my first pf50t that has 50hz hum. I thought it was bad tubes. So I returned it. Then in good faith bought a second new pf50t. Same hum, but maybe a tad less. But, I got hum from my Princeton when I plugged my Chapman stick in both amps with the Y cable. I bought a high quality speaker...

    Oh, i will try that! But as speaker cable has no shielding, I really wonder what could be wrong with this cable, but better try that before returning this otherwise Mighty sounding amp. Will report back.

    The stereo split cable is because I play the Chapman stick by the way^^

    Yes it's possible, I know the more powerful the wattage the more hum. Still the 15w single ended fender don't hum vs the 50w ofnthe ampeg. Maybe the hum level is acceptable when playing in a band. But for home I don't think so. Maybe the pf20t would suit my need but I am suspicious about the...

    Thanks, i biased thé amp well already, it really is à pleasure with thé led and knob. As for swapping thé tubes, I swapped the 12ax7s and the 12au7 and the hum is still going exactly the same. As the amp control don't affect the hum I should have known it was not the preamp section. I wait...

    I received my pf50t, brand new ! I got a annoying hum, low pitch... My other guitar tube amp has no hum. I wonder if that is a miswiring of the Heather filament supply or the tubes. It's pretty disappointing sadly, because otherwise the amp sound glorious. I see no light LED for the bias...

    Fender Rumble Club

    Hey! I just got a cab rumble 115. It sounds so good! One thing I want to ask, is did they change the fender logo on it? The logo I got with mine is almost the same as the one on my US made Princeton reverb ri! Sounds good with the Princeton as head.
