I have a VHT Special 6 Ultra that hisses and crackles, and not in a good way.

It doesn't always happen at first, it can sometimes take up to 2 minutes for the crackling to start. Or, maybe it won't hiss until I make a sound with the guitar, and then it starts. Once it starts hissing, it does not stop until turned off.
The behavior happens on all switch and dial settings, whether a guitar is plugged in or not, and can be heard on the Line Out. I've tried different guitars, cables, power supplies, and outlets.
So I brought it back to the shop I bought it from. I only know enough about amps to know NOT to go messing around in there myself with no idea what I'm doing.
Just documenting the issue and my troubleshooting, will report back in a few days when I know what the problem is!
