| Could be cheaper to just buy a new one these days, especially if it is a tube amp. Good luck.

| Jim Hill @VVT Amps in Waldorf. He is the closest. Otherwise, u have to go up on the beltway. Use the google to find their website. They also build boutique amps.

| What's wrong with them? SS is typically something simple. I disagree with the comment about tube amps not being worth fixing. They are the only things worth fixing.

| Contact High Voltage A bit of a hike but well worth it. More of a tube amp guy but he's fixed a few solid states for me also. |
