    Doh!

    I could never figure out why my 'bookshelf' practice amp buzzed annoyingly at higher volumes. I took it apart, this was inside it. Removed. Problem solved!

    Was it more like a torn speaker sound?

    Yep, I suspected a torn speaker hence the opening up of the box for inspection....

    What a relief to then find a silica pack instead.

    For sure, I thought 'another' visit to the local amp dealer was in order but not to be 😀

    Haha....yep, that would definitely do it, I thought I had seen it all but now that takes the cake so to speak, that Gel pack would definitely "dry" up the tone of the amp for sure.....sorry for my "dry" sense of humor.....I'll stop now before I go overboard.
