Amp set to pristine clean - think Twin on 3. Modified jackson slsmg w/pearly gates > mogami cable > amp = AWESOMENESS!
Inserted TP using well tested livewire cables. TP is the only FX run off this wall wart which is plugged into furman power conditioner.
TP is set 12,12,12. TP is off. No noise. TP clicked on and volume drops, slight hiss and tone gets muddier due to level dropping at the preamp (like rolling off volume knob).
Checked inside and the internal non-pot is up and down (untouched) and the internal pot is all the way clock-wise.
Guitar volume at 10 hiss. Guitar volume at half lower hiss. Will try 0 at home and even disconnecting the guitar.

We are really trying our best to keep this a "players forum" where people can hear and understand other players needs well enough to give and get help...something other forums lack, a simple reference point.
