Hey everyone ! Just picked up a maz 18 1x12 MKii from Sweetwater. This amp is exactly what I’m looking for to add to the collection. Sound is on point. Just one small annoyance…
I’m encountering some buzzing and rattling issues which I posted in the link above. Volume was at bedroom level. I only hear the rattling on certain notes and frequencies. I had a similar issue about 10 years ago on a hand wired ac30 which I don’t recall now how it got fixed.
Sweetwater told me it’s the tube retainers that’s causing it. I don’t really buy that since the tubes all have dampeners on them so the retainers are not touching the actual tube.
Any advice or opinion on this ? Thanks !

Don's really good! Probably won't be your last Z.
BTW - what was the issue with your amp?
