I've looked around and seen at least 30 ways of getting rid of the hiss on my Kustom K-200. (I dont really know too much info about this amp, I just got it used) I don't really want to go out to an amp tech and spend a bunch of cash. I'm just confused on what I should do personally. My amp hisses untill i tap a few of the knobs. Then it goes away, and slowly comes back. The polarity switch, (or i think thats what it is) has no real effect. I tried pulgging the two prong power chord in backwards and that didnt do anything. Any clues or suggestions? Thanks very much.
