So I would normally play with the mid boost on. And crank it a bit for gain. Always sounded really good. After almost $1,000 of tech work by 3 different people today I cranked it and the crackling sound was still there. I was messing with it and pulling on the push pull pots. I noticed that as I hit a chord and the crackling came into the sound, as soon as I pushed the mid boost down the crackling instantly stopped. I cranked the mids on the normal eq and it was perfectly fine. No crackle. I did it again... as soon as I put my finger on the knob it stopped. I think the pot is loose or needs to be replaced. But after almost a year of pain, misery and anguish the problem is gone? I really hope so. ****, I feel like a dumbass but damn... if that was the problem and no tech found it, I guess I shouldn't feel that bad. :/
