Does it have a standby switch and have you tried it in both positions?
Make sure it's not on 2 watt mode?
Make sure single ended mode is off?
Check the VAC is set to 230 - not 117?
Can't think of anything else - good luck!

16ohm out connected to 16ohm cab with speaker cable.
Tested kettle lead in, 230vac selected.
Single ended mode off.
Bias switch set to el34 as valves installed.
Nothing in fx loop.
No footswitch in.
Tested cable into input.
Switched from stabdbye to high with both volumes down.
There was a slight crackle but nothing like I'd expect.
All control knobs at 12.
Got a tiny amount of guitar signal through (super tiny considering how loud this thing was is shop) which then crackled and died off.
Im guessing there is a loose connection within the head somewhere. Regardless of if it's fixable by my limited skills, an amp that has failed within the first 2 hours of unboxing it doesn't bode well.
Back to the shop it'll go...
When I find a family member willing to drive my broken leggged self there. It'll be like I'm a teenager again.
cables and cabs proved working with another head

Just a thought.

This caught me out recently when my Batteries had died in my EMG's and that "Faint Signal" is what i got, but i was getting a buzz from touching the end of the guitar lead.
Just a thought which i thought might help.
Excellent.
Tried 2 guitars
