Fender Amplifier Repair Center Harlow Essex & Hertfordshire
We love Fenders amplifiers and see many Hot Rod Deluxe, and Blues Junior in for repair, not because they are a troublesome amplifier but they are a good all rounder, being light and punchy with a volume control you can never realistically get above 3 we have a good working relationship with Fender service department and obtain spares regularly.
We’re often seeing lots of Fender amps to repair, not because they’re troublesome but because they are popular. Popular models we see include the hot rod deluxe, blues and daville. Common faults with these amps is excessive humming caused by bad capacitors, crackling and popping caused by heat affected components.
If you have a Fender amplifier needing repair please use the repair ticket and our workshop will assist your repair
Blues Junior Bias
Fender Blues Junior amplifiers are fix biased. We can fit adjustable pots to allow for better bias setting
Hot Rod Deluxe Humming
Is your amp humming excessively, or making a squealing sound when the controls are turned up? We can fit new F&T Storage capacitors
The most common form of Fender amp repairs:
-Broken Pots
-Crackling pots
-Damaged jacks
-Hums & Crackles (caused by dry joints, leaking capacitors)
-Blown Elements
-Played too loud and let out some smoke
-Rarely it’s human error – We try to understand how you use the kit and offer suggestions for best results
Amps are dangerous inside!!!!
Amplifiers contain dangerous voltages and users are not recommended to start prodding around inside. We have had many amps in over the years where a video clip on ‘repairing amps’ is used and often creates many more faults. For many people their guitar amp is their tool to earning money, and needs to be carefully repaired and looked after. If you are unsure, do not touch it and call us!
