Hi Guys
I got an amp for my electric guitar but it only seems to project noise when its on the distortion setting when its on normal it doesnt seem to have any noise coming out.....has anyone come across this before or is it me being a total looser cause i havent a clue how to use an amp really :)
thanks

    Might just be a loose connection from the clean channel not being patched into the speaker.

    this may be stupid,
    but if it is a two channel amp,
    you probably have a dedicated channel volume for both clean and distortion,
    so the clean channel volume could be set to 0.

    I know you would think you would know that, but i don't know that you know that.
    ya know?

    What kind of amp, and maybe we could just verify it's not a simple setting issue.
    If I was to smile and I held out my hand
    If I opened it now would you not understand?
