i have both a k150-8 and a k100-8 vintage kustom amps. i had the k150 for a while and recently bought the k100. on both amps, when i have the trem-vib on, the tremolo and vibrato work , but when i move the trem-vib control counter clock-wise to the "vibrato" side, the signal gets a bit distorted and and the tone gets less bright. if i turn the trem-vib control clock-wise to the "tremolo" side, the the distortion decreases and the tone gets brighter. Both of my amps work the same way, is this normal?? both amps are pretty much completely original.
thanks
andy
