Re: Fuses

To protect different parts of the circuit. Pretty common to a have slo-blow on the primary, and fast blow on the HT, then there is the heater circuit and some have fuses on the OP transformer or low voltage switching circuits.

Re: NGD: Gibson CS R6 Goldtop heavy aged

As a poor man's version (and something entirely more suited to Slowy), I anguished over this. My dilemma is I'm no longer in a band so I don't play much electric.

Picked up one of these Debut 50R's cheap on TradeMe, going to use it as a more portable practice amp.

Re: NAD: Mesa Boogie Electra Dyne Head

I sold mine and bought a Royal Atlantic, which had separate EQ controls and a built-in attenuator. It was massive and really well built . I miss it now.
