I'm looking for a schematic...or if anyone knows the proper fuse for this amplifier.....I took out a Buss MTH4 and replaced it with a fast burn 5amp (all I had on hand), which works fine -Cleaner for some odd reason with no tube drain sound on shutting off.
One great sounding clean amp...expermented with a few 12ax7 tubes and found the old RCAs give it a warm, even sound-newer brighter with a more fender solid state sound...didn't know they would make such a vast sound difference in overall use...  Have another amp problem I'll post..

The MTH-4 is a standard-blow 4 amp fuse and should be replaced with one of the same rating.

Do you know why the previous fuse blew?
{there is no obvious reason why fitting a fuse of a higher rating should make any difference at all to the sound of the amp.}

Can you post a clear macro pic of the blown fuse, or describe what the internal fuse wire now it looks like?
If you say theory and practice don't agree you haven't applied enough theory.
