I have 50/50 believe I got my fan replacement from Mesa. You can however pull the fan out and it will have a manufacture label and Part number.

2 cents to check. When I got my 50/50 after a while it was blowing fuses and I checked most everything. The fuse holder didn't seem right after replacing fuses a few times. I took it out and replaced it. Never had that problem again. It's been many years.

In this pdf I see differences between schematics marked ver C and unmarked ver.

Hi, the Nomad uses those relays on the board for switching doesn't it? Need to check a schematic. Looks like cap resistor fet or IC. Or Zener diode?

I have always been a firm believer in white woodworking glue. Clean the joints. Use clamps to hold it while it dries.

Yes get it fixed/replaced sooner than later. Check manual in case there is something written about this.

Do you have a thermal gun, or Thermal Camera to follow the heat.

Also inspect the reverb jack for cleanliness. I had jacks that got oxidized and replaced them.

I use a GT1000 into the 50/50 and 2 seperate 12" Black Shadow Celestions mini custom made cabs closed and insulated, adjusted settings of the preamps in the Gt1000. Play small clubs 2.5 volume or so. The sound/tones are real nice. People come up all the time and say they love the guitar...

you can also get some resistive powersoak device to install before speaker on output so you can crank the amp and suffer a little on tone, however with adjustments you can dial a pretty good tone. Your 90watt amp will need a 100watt resistive device. I use a stereo 50/50 set on low and a stereo...

Lone Star very nice cleans. I'm using 6L6's all new tubes complete.

I got custom patch sets from tonegarageUK and had some real good emails with him. This was what it took for me to start tweaking the device for guitar and amp, pretty much opened the whole idea up to what has to get done to get tone I wanted. It was easier back in the years. Now these pedals...

Yes great piece. I find always have to tweak amps settings, distortion settings, setup equalizer and echo's noise gate levels, just about everything. Guitar signal and can't even remember all the other settings and levels. Kept searching YouTubes and documents until I found what I needed. Hours...

Yes thats correct. I'm very happy with the Gt1000 and all factory tones needed to be tweaked for my guitar. You have to work that device and the amp. I tried already made patches and had to tweak them also. Move around effects. I have set the 1000 up with the Lonestar and have made patches with...

How about input your instrument to GT1000. Output your GT1000 left/mono to return jack on amp. Insert dummy plug in send jack on amp. 1/4" plug no wires. Use GT preamps. So you bypass the preamp on your amplifier. I used my Lonestar like this for several rehearsals and it worked very well for GT...
