hey guys... i come to you with a slightly off topic problem. i'm guessing it involves capacitors or something like that, and it might be a problem someone could have with a synth, plus you guys are a wealth of knowledge sooo.... i'm having a problem with my fender bassman tube amp. it's spitting out noise randomly. sometimes it doesn't do it at all and other time it gurgles and spits out random volumes of static noise. i noticed that if i gave it a sharp nudge it'd go away for a second. same as if i turned it off and on. a friend of mine had the same thing happen with his off brand tube amp. i'm guessing all the components are original so there are probably some components that are 40 years old. am i right about needing to replace caps? if so, should i just do them all, or can i test for good and bad caps? thanks again for all your past help guys, johnny
