FB, for FUSE BLOWER. Since I got it, as soon as I run it a little hard it blows the HT Fuse.
Also, the front panel is microphonic. If you whack it w/ your knuckle you hear it thru the speaker cab. The sound of plugging a guitar cable into the input jack is amplified. You hear it thru the speaker cab.
So, I did some research. Seems even when Pete Thorn got his SL68 it blew a fuse. Some more of the same on TGP.
Now, it might be a shit power tube or not. The Customer Support is a joke. The guy there sends me an email every other day. A joke. At that rate it will take 6 months to diagnosis.
So, luckily where I live there is an awesome tech and amp builder. Jack at RocknRoll amps.
He will see what the problem is and I requested a 3-position Bright Switch. The SL68 ships with NO Bright Cap. Another joke, IMO.
Just blowing off steam. This shit pisses me off.
