I'm having a slight problem with my Cornford Hurricane, every time I try and boost it, even with low gain with my SL drive I hear a muffled kind of distortion where it sounds as if theres a blanket over the notes and only a muffled low end thump comes out, doesnt happen with my Badger 30 and only really happens on the neck pickup.
I've plugged into an external cab, still happens, so its not the speaker, I've cut all the bass and boosted highs and mids to no avail as well.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
I read something on another forum about "blocking distortion" but don't really understand what it is / how I can solve it...
I asked a while ago on the Cornford forum and got the reply "dont use pedals" haha...

I've got an ecc81 valve lying around, if i put that in v1 gain stage would that do anything? or just make the amp quieter/less gainy? ICBM
