Hi, i recently got a super cheap crate td70- i was super excited about it because it has real spring reverb and tubes! sounded like an upgrade from my old stuff- i got it and the thing is broken. DI works perfectly- but both channels have a loud hum and output at half volume. the only tube i can see lights up and looks fine- this is making me think there is a problem with some connections being dirty and rusted. if the tube was jacked the second channel would still be fine right? i figured they were totally independent and channel B wouldnt run through the tube, but i could be mistaken. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated- I may buy a tube to test it but fear that will be a waste of 25 bucks.
