Picked up a JVM-1h about a week ago. Seemed to be working fine at first, and I started to notice that a hum is beginning to grow louder. Here is what I know (and have done) so far: Different power cords, different outlets of the house, plugged directly into input (different cords, no effects), different guitars (running it into a 4x12).
If its on the clean channel, the hum is so faint you can barely hear it (even on full volume). On the OD channel with the gain on one and volume nearly full, the hum is faint. The louder the gain, the louder the hum. The hum is quite loud when volume is on 3 and gain on full. This was the floor model and the only one they had left. Possibly preamp tube? Hum is present with our without guitar plugged in.
Greatly appreciate your thoughts, and thanks in advance for the help.
