OK, got my new Ibanez guitar- check
Got my new Kustom Arrow 16DFX amp- check
Got nice GYC cable- check.

Plugged in amp, plugged guitar into amp- all lights and indicators operating as they should- yet the amp is not making a sound.

Am I making some gormless rookie mistake here (tried pretty much every permutation of the volume settings on both amp and guitar) or is there something amiss?

Feel free to point and stare- I just want to make some noise :-)

You wrote "check" after every piece of gear,hope that doesn't mean you checked it
cause how could you if it's not working. biggrin.gif

Ok,could be some tube out of socket.
I had similar issue when I got my Prophesy preamp.
Tube was out,probably cause of shipping and nasty guys at terminals dry.gif
So I plugged guitar,input indicator ok but no output.
I opened it and voila,tube was having a nice walk all over motherboard. wink.gif

Btw,is your amp a tube amp?
