Oops!

You are right! I shouldn't have stated that it was McShaned! Ok - he recommended and sent parts for this amp (made it even better!)

The amp is at the shop still because the volume pot and the selector switch was dirty (Jim recommended bypassing the balance control so that isn't in the circuit anymore)..

I can't take pics because of that fact. It's just that i brought this up here because I am head scratching about this one. They had it running for about 6 hours and tested it. Your suggestion that it was perhaps best to use a slow blow fuse mirrored the shop's opinion.

I was going to the local shop I was telling you about to purchase the MG Chemicals contact cleaner tomorrow and they had fuses (thought I should stock up and also to check what the Jolida manual states) and after reading the manual I found out they put fast blow fuses in the thing.

That's when I became a bit confused!
