I can't think of how. What sort of problems are you having with the amp?
you name it they are there. fuzz, buzz, unwanted feedback, sound thinning out (for lack of better word), all of these problems increasing over time, loss of effects, etc.
i posted about this awhile ago thinking it was a factory problem. i didn't call the company because i didn't want the run around over a cheap amp, because i figured that the time i spent dealing with the manufacturers to get nowhere i could pick up a shift at work and buy a new one. (if it would've been a more expensive amp, i would've called the company for sure).
i haven't bothered to buy a new one yet, but am just getting by with this for now, but i am still curious as to what the problem might be. people have told me they have never had these problems with their microcubes, so i have singled it out so far to be caused either by the fact that it was shipped by ups and sat outside in a box for probably 30 minutes by my door in the winter or my guitar.
i have flourescent lighting in my kitchen but that couldn't be the cause of all this, and i usually don't play it in there either. i have a long cord also, but i don't think that could be the source either.
i seriously suspect it might be my guitar. maybe something in there is causing something to fry out in the amp? this has got to be a stupid question, but i'm not an expert, so that's why i'm asking.
thanks
