Honestly, it might be something simple, but it really depends on what’s causing the crackling. A lot of amps start doing that when a part inside gets old, like a dirty pot, a loose connection, or something heating up after a few minutes. Sometimes just cleaning the knobs with contact cleaner can help, but other times it’s more of an internal issue.
Since it starts after the amp warms up, that usually means a part inside isn’t super happy anymore. You could pop it open and look for dust or loose wires if you’re comfortable, but if not, it might be safer to get someone to check it. I’d hate for you to try fixing it and make things worse.
If you really wanna use it again though, it’s definitely worth trying a basic cleaning first.
