Members tommythelurker Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think tube amps usually need a slow blow for the mains though. If the slow fuse blows too you should get the amp checked out. Could be a tube going bad or something else wrong with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members knw Posted July 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 OK SLOW BLOW hasn't blown yet...but I was playing the amp at low volume like at volume 3 then I went to 7 volume for like 2 or 3 min...cause my neighbor will actually kill me...cause the growl will kill the foundation of his house...basically everything moves in my grange and the walls crumble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tele62 Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 IF the fuse goes more than once, it's a sign that your tubes are about to give up. BAsically, as they get older they draw more and more current, eventually too much or the transformers to handle - which is why the fuse blows. New set of power tubes should be all you need, best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members phyrexia Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 You're not supposed to use a fastblo fuse. You should be fine. You probably blew the forty year old fuse in the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
