Picked up a used ( As New Condition) Hiwatt Tube Series T20 Combo.
Plugging in and then turning on the power in standby mode - Silent.
Flick off the Standby and with no guitar plugged in , there is a very audible amount of white nose through the speaker.
Turn the switch to Half Power mode, the level of the white noise decreases slightly, but still overly audible.
Very well made amp but not sure of the quality of tubes fitted - Cheap Chinese I'd imagine.
Wondering what could be the cause - Should run quiet, my old Plexi's ('60s) are dead quiet in this mode & with guitar plugged in.
