Bass Amp cutting out
« on: January 04, 2005, 06:44:36 am »
My Beta bass works for about 10 minutes then dies. I turn it off then on. In about 1 minute and it works again.  No lights go off, just silence.  I am sure it is an overheating problem, but where should I start to look?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Hello:
 I would start by eliminating sections. Try plugging a signal source into the power amp when it fails to see if it's the power amp or the pre-amp that is failing. After that, do you have basic backyard trouble shooting skills? There is a schematic in the service manual section of this site.

If it's too loud, you're too old.

Thank you I'll try that. I found and downloaded the manual. I have some basic skills, so I hope to muddle through
