No, honestly, I spent all day running around to electronics stores, I never even thought of them. Their shitty hours doesn't help me get up there to get them though... but I was running around on a Saturday. The prices seem better at the online electronics stores, but you never know, they might have them right cheap. I'll give them a call and see what they got.

Just called. They wouldn't go through and tell me if they had the right values, but welcomed me to come in and check for myself... since I'd have to wait until Saturday anyways to go up there I might as well order online. Wished I had fucking thought of them on Saturday

Another update to my saga: Musicstop as it turns out did NOT have ANY fuses, at all. They flat out lied to me on the phone to get me in the store. Anyways, I got the fuses, and it looks like Norbert has 2 bad tubes. At least, that's what I'm going to assume since I saw 2 of the tubes glowing red on the plates. I shut the amp off before I popped another fuse, and I guess I'll have to order yet ANOTHER set. This is my second bad set of KT77's in a row

Not so fast! 2 tubes? I 'd check other things as well. Shop time!

Le sigh. There's only 1 electronics shop around here I'd trust, and I think he's back logged like a mofo. How long of a drive is it down to you Bill? And what's April's favorite kind of flower?

dude, you've been having a fuckton of problems with norbert.
first the lack of gain thing in the beginning, now the blown fuse and two sets of bad tubes?
that's really odd.
i bought mindy secondhand, and she's been reliable as hell.

I'm typing this on my knees with my butt in the air. -Drew

The distortion is normal, my friend just bought a Dragon second hand as well, and his gain is about the same. The blown fuse would be BECAUSE of the bad tubes, and Popsyche is saying that there's most likely an underlying problem because of that.
