Why does my JC120 smell bad?

[sonidero]

Wow really...

Amps older than you are greatness...

Cats only pee on good amp/cabs...

Old amp smells are good smells...

get that amp a cig and some iced tea

that's funny, cause my jc has a strange smell at higher volumes, similar to how you described yours. When I keep the volume at a normal/bedroom level though, it's not there. How old is yours?

Yeah I usually play mine at a "quiet" volume but I turn up more when no one is home. Didn't notice the smell till now.
Not sure how old it is, if it's too hard to figure out I give up because I don't really care to know unless I was reselling.
457209 is the serial number.
I think it's probably from the 80s, the previous owner said it was definitely an older one

if it doesn't have those bright switches and the name on the front is in black then it's a really old one like mine. The serial numbers are generally useless for dating though.

Maybe you should stop jizzing on the transformer.
