i have a traynor custom valve 40 tube amp, ive had it for about a year and 1/2. never put it above half volume, moved it like 2 times and very gently. however while i was playing today the sound started cutting out and my amp let off a ton of horrible smelling smoke, originating from the area of the amp near the tubes. i was playing with the volume below 10%. The smoke smelled toxic. any idea what this could be? i am so scared for my amp.......
