I have seen on here in the past there is someone who repairs these units. I am referring to the little black distortion devices that plug directly into the end plate input on the steel. Anyone?

What is going on with it Clyde?? Just not turning on; or no stops for the "aux" and "vol" knobs?? Input loose?? New 9 volt battery?
I've certainly opened a few of them up in my day to fix this or that; been a while, but if you want to send it to me; I can give it a whirl.

Thanks Ricky. Both will pass straight signal, but not distortion. On one, the volume knob is disintegrating. I've replaced the batteries but I can't find any broken wires or breaks in the little PC board.

I always run that volume knob at least 3/4 open for the AUX to have good send/adjust, and overall volume is done with volume pedal.( I think of that volume knob reacts like a "MIX" knob; so crank the MIX up Bro...ha..
