There's a sudden volume drop right before I hit the max stop end on the High Treble volume pot on my newly built JTM45/100 clone. It's been consistent the few time I tested. Volume increases as expected when I turn the pot, until this drop happens.
It's also independent of guitar input volume, plugging in High or Low, or settings of Presence, Bass, Middle, and Treble. There's switchable tone stack (Lead/Bass) and NFB resistors (27k, 49k, and 100k, and 4, 8, and 16 Ohm) but different settings doesn't change the volume drop.
Could this be a faulty pot (new A1M CTS)? I need to order replacement if so.
Or could this be oscillation or similar, so I need to connect the oscilloscope?
Normal channel volume pot acts in the expected way, all the way to max. All voltages are normal, and except for the problem above the amp sounds very good. Also very low noise without guitar signal.
