confused bout my mark IV fuse!

[willrock]

hey there guys..i bought my mark iv about 3 years ago and i have the same fuse on it till now.. i wanna buy an extra fuse just in case of emergency. Now here comes the problem, the manual and the back of my mark Iv says 117 volt-60 hz- 4amps slow blow fuse, but the fuse that is installed on this amp since i bought it is 250 volt-4 amp- slow blow fuse!! so do i have the wrong fuse all these years??

No, you have the right fuse. 4 amps is what the fuse is rated as (Slow-Blow), and that is what matters. the 117 volts/60hz is what the amp is designed for at 4 amps AC current.

Don't worry about it. If it was wrong, you would have had trouble by now after 3 years. I just checked my mk4 b less than a year old amp, and my fuse is a 250 volt/4 amp fuse.
