Epi Valve Jr. Head - No Output

Plugged in for the first time in a while last night, and after a few minutes (cranked) output disappeared.

Fuse looks good, tubes light up, nothing visibly out of place inside the chassis, no odd sounds or smells at time of failure.

Any ideas?

Bad tube, bad resistor, bad cap, broken connection, bad PT, bad OT......have you checked the speaker/s??

get out the meter, start measuring . . . .

Don't have the skill to do more than swap tubes and fuse.

Went shopping for an EL84 to try that, but came up empty. Only local store that had any in stock had pairs and quartets, no singles.

I'll try that later this week, and if it's not the power tube, it's still under warranty.

I just got through modding mine and have the tubes, If you want them you can have them just pay the postage. You should have them in a couple of days since I live in SC.

Where did you get the amp, chances are if you put in a warranty on it they may just ship a new unit and let you keep the original. It's noy worth the return postage for them to ship it back. read this

Thanks for the offer. If the shop closest to my office doesn't have anything, I may take you up on it.

Thanks for the tip. I ordered it from AMS roughly 4.5 years ago, but still have the paperwork, and they have everything on file as well.
