Need Help. I have a 69 or 70 Kustom 100 with reverb and tremelo. The volume jumps when I turn it to the one o'clock position and my reverb and tremelo are weak. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Have you cleaned the controls with a spray cleaner like DeoxIt?

Weak FX could be any number of things like bad coupling caps or bad switching transistors, or other bad components. Give us a better description of each of the problems and it might lead us in some direction.
