THIS IS THE 25th ANNIVERSARY YEAR FOR THE LES PAUL FORUM! PLEASE CELEBRATE WITH US AND SUPPORT US WITH A DONATION TO KEEP US GOING!
We've made a large financial investment to convert the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and recently moved to a new hosting platform. We also have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
Please support our Les Paul Forum Sponsors with your business - Gary's Classic Guitars, Wildwood Guitars, Chicago Music Exchange, Reverb.com, Throbak.com and True Vintage Guitar. From personal experience doing business with all of them, they are first class organizations. Thank you!
It's a 4010 that has a loud hum when the guitar isn't plugged in and a loose tube socket. I would like to have it checked out by a pro to fix it and give it a clean bill of health.
Not sure how far away in NH you are from Boston's North Shore, but my guitar tech in Beverly, MA has worked on my amps as well as Les Paul. You might give him a call. But he's in demand, so expect a wait. Good luck!

I highly recommend JC's as well, He's worked on my jcm800 (4211) and all my guitars.
Paitence is must however, Usually a 5 to 6 week lead time. All my experience's have been worth the wait. He's great guy, and his prices are reasonable.
JC's is good...the shop I used to work at used him for amp repair. Also a bit further away in Pawtucket RI is Providence Music Service, they're pretty quick and do good work.
There used to be a gret tech in Milford, MA, but he moved off somewhere and I don't know where. A bit off, but most amp tecks I've met tend to be a bit strange...must be sniffing all the solder fumes all the time.
