Amp sat idle for about a month. I went to plug in last night and nothing- no lights on front, no sound.
Both fuses look ok- should i replace anyway? All 6L6 and EL34 tubes turn on and get hot. The fwd position 12ax7 is hot, all others feel warm to the touch, covers removed.
Please advise- all help is greatly appreciated!!
 
Doesn't sound like a fuse problem.

I'm not an amp tech.

I'd swap around the Phase Inverter 12x...tube and the power tubes. Maybe hit the tube pins with some Dioxit contact clear, start with one power tube set then the other, make sure your cab is plugged in, run your guitar into the effects return, stuff like that.
 
Tried- no luck. I even replaced all tubes just to be sure. I did get min sound when plugged in through the effects return. Am I doomed here??
I sent a note to the Egnater help desk- no reply for 2 days...... anyone have feedback about how often Bruce checks his email?

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
 
Replace the fuses anyway and sometimes there are other fuses if you take out the chassis.
 
You can't always tell a bad fuse just by looking. Test them.
