Hey folks, new user, first post.
After 3 years sitting in the corner collecting dust I've finally taken the initiative to get my classic 100 all fired up again; new tubes and a couple of fresh fuses. All is good, except the pilot light.
I picked up a two bulbs from the local rat-shack/source; both 6.3V, one 150mA and one 250mA. Neither work.
Having just mined the stock bulb from a box full of crap for comparison, it appears visually to be in perfect working order - no breaks in the filament, no black marks, nothing indicating it's burnt out. Of course, it doesn't work either.
So, unless I've horrible taste in light bulbs, there must be something wrong inside the amp.
Any ideas? Is there another fuse buried deep inside? Or do I just need to pick the right bulb?
If it matters, the only markings on the stock bulb are "44 SB4".
