Peavey Heritage VTX --TUBE AMP--
Peavey Heritage VTX --TUBE AMP--
I'm quite a noob when it comes to amp issues, so here it goes, let's see if I can explain what is happening to see if I can be helped here...
When on the Rhythm channel (Amp is not infront of me right now, but the clean channel). The amp works fine, however when I try to use the lead channel(Distorted), the amp gives off a very high pitched sound along with what I can only describe as 2 squirrels fighting.
Any help will be much appreciated!!! THANKS!!!!

When was the last time it had tube tune-up ?
Enzo is a Professional Amp Tech with his own shop in Lansing Michigan.
He's thinking it's one of the "Early Peavey" amps equipped with solid state pre-amp and tube power.

Recommend Office Visit with Friendly Local Amp Doctor
As amps age (and your amp is old).......
They require replacing capacitors (caps) and resistors
Your amp in need of Full Physical & recommended rejuvenation

I work in Lansing, live in Jackson. I think this is a great coincidence, one which I hope to help me in my favor.
