Re: Leslie stuck on high

It appears that the source of this particular problem has been =
identified, in this instance, but let me add my two cents in case anyone =
runs into it on the road. As I mentioned in a post a few weeks ago, one =
manifestation of insufficient line voltage during a gig I had many years =
ago was that my Leslie would not switch speeds. Turned out the wall =
outlet my rig was plugged into measured 85V. Fortunately, I had shut =
everything off soon enough to avoid damage, but if your Leslie won't =
switch speeds (on a power source with which you have no previous =
experience), shut down FIRST and ask questions later. The bass player =
concurrently thought the answer to his symptom (low volume) was to crank =
it up, and he fried his amp (to match his brain).
