Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem on my Bassman. The filter cap of the preamp section measured open, and its grounding wire wasn't connected; so it couldn't do its job of preventing the signal from bypassing the tonestack and volume control; and thus being added out of phase to the signal coming off the second triode.
