Why is my amp making weird noises?

Why is my amp making a high pitched noise?
If you hear ringing (a feedback-like high-pitched sound) in your amp, it's probably coming from a preamp tube. ... If trouble isn't apparent right away, turn up the Volume and Master knobs and keep tapping until you find the tube that rings (or squeals). Turn off the amp, and allow the tubes to cool.
