Possible Mesa 2:90 problem

[geetarmonkey]

I've been experiencing some weird malfunction with my Mesa 2:90. Sometimes, when I power it up, the light will flicker on and off a few times before finally staying on (and you can hear the amp turning on and off with it, it's not just the power light). It really scared me today when I was jamming, an hour into a practice session, and my sound just drops completely. I can't figure it out so I run back to my rack, and the light (and amp) have turned off somehow. I quickly turned it to "Standby" and it somehow turned itself back on. If anyone can provide some insight into this strange occurance, I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks!

I would suggest you take it to be serviced/repaired as soon as possible.

I had something similar and it was due to the wire connecting the mains transformer to the PCB was burning out.

The sooner you take it to be fixed the less chance there is for further damage to occur to the amp.

Best wishes
