I guess some stuff needed known is:
What kind of amp? Fender, Kustom, Peavey, etc.
Is it under warranty?
What kind of problem are you having?
I would look in the Yellow pages for a music store that featured whatever kind of amp you have and check with them to see if they are an authorized service station. I would prefer an authorized place as they can usually get parts if they don't have them in stock.
If it's under warranty, it would have to go to an authorized place to get it covered by the warranty. If not, well, I'd still prefer the authorized service station. That way, if it isn't fixed right, you can go straight to the manufacturer and they can assist in getting it done right.
The main question! What's it doing or not doing?
it could be something simple, like a tube starting to die. Perhaps a blown fuse (of course, then you'd need to ask, why did it blow?)
Is no sound coming out of it? distorted sound? weak sound?
If it is a boutique amp, or just a not-well-known amp, ask other musicians that you may know, where they take their gear for repairs. Or, look up the company web site and see if they have a listing of retailers near you. Then call them and see if they do repair work.
Hope that helps.
