Yes. If you trace the circuit from the input jacks, there should be a connection to the base of one transistor pretty early on - they may be capacitor in series, but little else. That's the first gain stage. That's the first one I'd suspect. The culprit may also be the next one down the line.

I have a K150 that was doing something similar - some sound coming out, but volume control was erratic in it's behavior. I think I just replace that first one and it made a world of difference.
