my Savage just died... HELP!

[Allu83]

as said in the topic.. my savage just died...

I'm trying to figure out what happend...
as I turned on the Power (all cables plugged... power, cabinet etc) I noticed one of the power tubes was glowing strangely... and also some strange noise was coming from the cab..somekind of electric interferences...even if it was still in standby...

as I turned on the standby switch just a really loud "WOOOOO" was coming out from the cab (all volume knobs were down to 0) then, suddendly, I saw a flash coming from the powertubes and it shut down... the fuse was blown...

Now.. I think that it was just because of a broken tube, but...it already happend about 1 year ago with the Dual Recto... do you think that it's possible that it's something related to the electric system of my studio?

any suggestion is appreciated!
thanks guys...

change the broken power tubes (if you can), change the fuse and try to turn it on

it's broken, sell it to me for 100Euros...

LOL, nice try...
I won't give it away for anything in life... well.. maybe for Sasha Grey....

I don't have replacements right now, I'll try to buy a new couple tomorrow if it stops snowing here!

Yeah dude new tubes and a new fuse should do the trick.

Hey man, are you Alu from Guitar amp modeling? Did you fix the Duel Rectifier when this happened to it?

@muckypup1
sorry no, that's not me... i'm not a big fan of amp modelling either! I still prefer micing the amp!
When the Dual Recto blown, I've changed the powertubes & fuse and all went fine, but it happend exactly when I turned on the standby switch, not after about 15/20 seconds as with the savage!

...here's still snowing and I can't get out of my house... I feeling like I'll have to wait after the holidays for get a new pair of tubes... that sux...
