Anybody have one? Mine is a '90, and I have a problem with general volume. I play normally and suddenly the volume fall down. Help!!!

I have an m-80 Pro Rack unit that works great...want it? $75.00

I have one, but I've never had any problems with it. I leave it at my school for my students to use.

Mmm... seems like everyone wants to get rid of it.

I think the volume pot is just dirty/"scratchy"...you might want to take it to an amp repair shop where a tech can "clean" it up.

Well, yes, it does seem like "everyone wants to get rid of it". I was going to keep mine...but I was running out of room for all the musical gear that I've collected. Plus, I've "fallen in love" with the tube amp's sound. But the Fender M-80 is NOT a bad amp at all! It has, arguably, the cleanest channel on any amp I've ever heard!!

Thanks a lot, franchelB! I think it's a good amp, too. That's why I want to bring back to life.

I remember when you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting an M-80.

I remember a lot of things that are gone!

Cheers, Tim
