Hey guys, so this week my Randall RG75 started making a terrible feedback like noise that got louder and louder to the point I had to shut it off for a number of minutes. Nothing in my set up has changed, I was even using the same outlet that I usually do. After combing the threads for advice I have decided that since my amp is second hand and looks like its been ridden hard and put away wet so to speak it needs some good maintenance. I'm experienced enough in electronics that I feel comfortable in cleaning the connections and soldering parts that need touching up. However I'm looking for any other tips that you have to keep my amp in working condition or to avoid having a shocking experience. Thanks in advance.

And use resistor when discharging.
Often they discharge on their own when you turn the amp off when playing, But NEVER TRUST THAT."So understand/Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years/Face up, make your stand/And realize you're living in the golden years"
