I came to the forum just to ask if there is a problem with the Hipower (HiWatt) amp. I've doing a total make-over of my Axe III, changing lots of things and came to an amp I used in the past but haven't played in a good while, the Hipower.
I can't get any treble out of this amp. Any of the AXE varieties. I don't remember it sounding like this.
I noticed the bright cap is not functional at all. From 10pf to 10000 pf, no change.
So I'm asking...is my firmware corrupt, is this a bug? Is the bright cap vacant because the real amp didn't have one? If it didn't it sure needs one.
I've heard a lot of great sounding HiWatts and this just doesn't sound right.
So, is the problem in my device? Is the problem in my head ( I've wondered this a lot lately). If this is the way it was designed, can the bright switch be re-enabled?
Can you give it a listen and see what you think?
