If there's nothing in the effect loop jumper it with a short cable. These had problems with the loop. not sure if that's the case here. |

Those era Randalls had a lot of issues. I waited months for the Warheads to come out. I ran down to Mars music the first day that they got a Warhead full stack in, went to plug in, and the guy told me that they cranked it the night before to test out, and it crapped out. I was so bummed I wanted to cry. That's what got me going after the old RG's and Century's. I've had problems with X2's as well. The Corpse currently owns 3 X2's but only one works right.  |
