A while back I deployed with the military. I gave my AxSys 212 and stompbox controller to a friend - figured it was better to be used then leaving it in storage - anyway... He fried one of the chips (static shock on carpet - apparently this was common with the 212?) Then left it in a barn for a few years. :( Since it was collecting dust I asked for it back. After cleaning it up: The amp is stuck in "tuning" mode, the stompbox has power but isn't communicating with the amp (buttons, vol pedal, nada) I understand this is due to the fried chip... There is a dirty hum coming from the speakers that appears to be tied to the master volume knob - crackling when turning it, and dirty hum increases / decreases. (see post below) I don't really need an amp, but... I remember how excellent this thing was. Brought me a lot of joy for a long time. Is it worth fixing it and where would I start? I hate to just recycle it. Thanks in advance for any opinions.
