Metropoulos Forum

I was playing my metro '69 this morning and in the middle of a Billy Gibbons solo the amp died. It blew the mians fuse. I had to leave for work so, didn't have time to pull it apart this morning. Now here I sit at work with my amp on my mind!!! What a bummer!!!!

Huh.....I sit at work thinking about amps all day when there's nothing wrong with any of mine. It's not so bad.

i hear that - constantly!

Well yeah, that's a given. But when problems arise and your gone for nine hours, the day seems like 90 hours, then when you start working on it 2 hours seems like 2 minutes, then you have to start the work day over again!!! Well, here I am sitting in front of the amp. Hopefully I'll get it finished before I go to bed.

Ha Ha,yeah, sometimes I look at the customers where I work, and all I see where thier face should be is red and blue layouts. I have visions of wire while I should be bearing down and working.

its something minor. dont sweat it. major power tube malfunction you watch. Go home tap em and swap em out, rebias and fire that sucke up. Write me back. I have gifts.

I sit at work and work on amps all day, sometimes I do stand. Hope its a simple easy fix with your fuse that blew, good luck, bluze

one time I dreamt ( is that a word?) the color code combination to a complicated switch I was working with.

Ahhh.....the sweet sounds of the Metro rise again. Thank you all for your support. Now it's time to crack open a cold one and let 'er rip!!!

THAT'S more like it!!!!

10 beers later and ringing in my ears. Oh how good life can be!! WOO-HOO!!!!!

Crank it up, and that ringing can be a permanent treat like mine is!!!!

Already is!!

So, what was it?

You have to be careful with those Gibbons solos. They'll getcha!
