As posted in an off topic thread I ordered this via eBay and when I received it it had been shipped wrapped only in a bin bag.
Understandably it didn't work, was scratched on every corner, had the input hanging loose back into the body, was missing a control knob (which the neighbor who took it in found on their driveway the other day) and was generally filthy. I complained to eBay they asked the guy to issue return postage which he ignored and I got a refund.
I thought rather than chuck it I'd have a look and see if I could get it going and having taken it apart and cleaned it it now powers up.
However, it is insanely loud, ear piercing on anything over 1.5 on volume which cannot be right and it also has a constant chorus echo on it no matter what mode it is put in.
Any ideas what may be causing this?

At this point I would keep the speaker, and any other parts you can easily remove (handles and feet in particular are surprisingly useful) and not bother going to any more trouble, as you've been refunded.

If it looks decent then even if you can't get the amp section working, you could turn it into an extension cab.

No idea! But if you can get it working, it's probably worth finding out - it's very unlikely to do any harm since they're obviously meant to be easily accessible.
