Reported as problem with guitar input socket, owner tested with 2 leads and 2 guitars, and amp problem. But of course no problem with me, as received and now with the thing dismantled , including the Tx , to reconfigure under power and rattle and bend . Yes PbF, but i/p socket solder points look ok under x30, and trying to force signal contact pin out of the pcb with circlip pliers acting between pcb and protruding lump at axial end of the socket, just flexes the pcb. Anything other than wiring in a replacement conventional socket and bypassing a tiny via, in the signal line, and crossing-fingers against a bounce? Plenty of tip contact clearance in open position. The phosphor-bronze pcb grounding contacts do not constitute a ground line through the amp casing.
