Just a suggestion way back in the day when I was gigging a lot and i bought a new amp something similar happened to me. All I can say, as much as it may hurt and you may not want to ,I say send it back. Good luck my friend

Re: New Amp Day Ceriatone Silver Joe-bilee

If Nik has a trusted local rep, I'd have no problem taking it versus shipping all the way back. I do the same in my shop for many manufacturers performing warranty repairs. I do the work, they send parts and reimburse me for the time, and the customer gets a rapid repair.

Re: New Amp Day Ceriatone Silver Joe-bilee

Haven't posted in a while till today but have been reading. I was very interested in this amp as I already have a Ceriatone Yeti which I absolutely love!

Sucks what happened man! So where are you with all this? Any resolution?

Oh man, it kills!! Great amp!! It'll do old school 100 watt Plexi no problem, JCM 800 and much more. The thing that surprised me so much is how great the cleans are. Smokin blues tone all day long!!

Love it!! In a situation right now where I don't get to crank it at all so its been frustrating. There are so many tones in this thing and I need a place to work them all out.......

Re: New Amp Day Ceriatone Silver Joe-bilee

GREAT NEWS about the Ceriatone, was purely a pair of faulty valves and a dead resistor!!

Repaired and re-embersed for the repair with no questions asked, thumbs up to Ceriatone!

And most importantly it sounds great!

More news soon smile
