The fast blow fuse with the lightning bolt interior can be found under Ebay if you look up MTH fusetron fuses. There are some photos of the interior construction. Note that not all MTH series have the lightning bolt interior, the newer ones seem to have a wavy fusible element internally.The spring loaded slow blow fuses are the MDL/MDM series but sadly seem to have their construction changed. I guess technically they should be called dual element designs, and offer 200% overload capacity.
It is also interesting to note that fuses are now ROHS compliant which means they have shifted from the older leaded solder to the new lead free stuff. Since cable manufacturers always tout the audibility of the solder they use, no doubt that this also has a bearing on the final sound.
