Ok so I was testing the 37-620 cathedral after a full recap and I am getting a real loud base squealing. If i turn the tone control it get higher pitched and then starts sputtering intermittently.

It was not making any sound at first so I checked all the tubes and cleaned the controls but now this is happening..

What the heck did I do?
