I immediately suspected tube fatigue and switched out the whole lot.
Still no volume.
I guess the caps are next?

after having a hard look inside this baby Ive decided to totally rewire
the circuit board, I puchased this little gem from a friend and it would
seem his soldering skills werent all that great. Im also thinking about upgrading to better wiring.
