OH one last thing .... in the midst of trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with this thing last the other night , i also emailed the guy i bought it from on ebay ...to ask if maybe there was aproblem he might have been aware of causing it to blow fuses... would you beleive that called me TWICE yesterday to tray and help out with whatever he could ....i was stunned ...what a cool thing to do ..you expect people to be "well i got the payment fuck that guy " ...but he sounded genuinely CONCERNED ...which was cool ...needless to say i left a big huge positive feedback or 5 on his ebay seller thing..... just goes to show that contrary to most of the shit in the "dragon cave" some people really ARE human out there in cyber space.... course ..none of this applies to anyone in this thread ..who OBVIOUSLY are the most intelligent people to ever grace a bbs ever.... _________________ http://www.myspace.com/blameamy

Either shove some 20 amp fuse in there or get the correct fuse. I believe my Bassman head uses a Slo-Blo fuse so they can't be that hard to find.

I heard a fellow Texan say to me the other day "Hey guys, check this out!!!" After years of experience with this sort of situation my basic survival instincts kicked in and I proceeded to high-tail it away from the scene before the inevitible head-decapitating or limb-severing event took place. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

Seriously... NEVER replace a fuse with an amp rating higher than what is recommended. Those ratings are there for a reason, mainly to prevent other components in the circuit from acting out the role of the fuse. A $.10 fuse is much cheaper than a $.15 resistor which requires the $40-to-plug-in-the-soldering-iron fee most electronic repair shops charge to replace such an item.

Just as you found out, there was an issue with the amp, and was easily fixed once you started taking a deeper look. Glad you were able to figure it out, rock on man.
