Default PbF + gold-plating + tinpest?

Anyone have a test for tinpest?
2 year old Mark Bass mini CMD 121P amp with rustling noise, bad pbf on
the guitar input socket.
One pin easily pulled out of its eyelet that remained well soldered into
the pcb hole. White deposit entirely overlaying the gold-plating of the
1/4 inch socket pcb pin.
