Hey fellas,
I just picked up a cool little tube amp from a garage sale~ But, unfortunately, it has a musty smell, probably form sitting in a basement or attic for the past several years. :o

Has anyone had any success or have any good methods for eliminating musty smells from amp cabs?
 
Get the dead rat out of it for starters. :eek:

If it's been in a dark, damp place, I'd guess for starters, get it out into a warm dry place and get some of the moisture out of it. Put it near the window when the sun is out.

I suppose you could take the amp chassis out of the cabinet, get a light mixture of bleach and water and spray the inside of the box and wipe it down. The bleach should kill the mold and/or mildew. I wouldn't soak it but just get it damp then wipe it out. After that, let it dry.

Anyone else got any ideas?
