Guitar Info Your guitar was made at the
Corona Plant (Fender), USA
in the Year(s): 2009 - 2010


Fender: Corona Corona factory was opened in 1985, Corona California, with major guitar production starting in 1987. With the addition of a custom shop in 1987 the plant currently employs about 700 workers. Apart from general and Custom Shop Fender instruments and amplifiers, it also encompasses Guild acoustic & electric guitars.

This guitar was made in China in 2012. A used Standard series Squier Stratocaster or Telecaster in very good condition sells for $175-$200 in my market. Your's may vary.

"Vent" holes? Is there a "sound" hole (Thinline Telecaster)? If not then it's a regular ol' Tele. Fender does not list any eight digit serial numbers for any electric guitars. It may be a counterfeit guitar and not a Fender at all.

Fender Passports are notorious for being badly built with poor reliabilty. Trade it in for a fiver and buy something of better quality.

If the problem is actually the volume knob, then the guitar shop did not fix it and you should bring it back. There is a test you can do to see if the problem is your volume knob. With the guitar unplugged, you can turn the knob up to the max and down to the min a lot of time (like 50-100 times or more) plug it back in and see if the problem is a little bit better, if it is I would bring it back to the repair shop and demand they fix it properly.

The problem could be the cable you are using. Sometimes it can seem like it's a volume knob problem when really it's a cable issue. Jiggle the cable and connector while the guitar is plugged in to see if the sound cuts out at all or you get crackling.

Your amp has two channels - "normal" and "drive." When you are on the normal channel, the "volume" knob controls your gain. In the "drive" channel, the drive knob controls your gain. In both channels, the "master" knob limits how loud the amp will get.

Most likely, you are on the drive channel, so the volume knob will have no effect. Try pushing the "channel select" switch. You should notice the channel indicator lamp (next to the drive knob) turn off. When it is off, you are in the normal mode. Yellow = drive, and red = "more drive."

Experiment with different settings to get a variety of tones.

Have fun - it's a great amp.
