Recently a was happily rocking out on my Mark V when out of nowhere it just completely lost power.
I noticed the fuse was blown so replaced it then rebooted it and inspected my power tubes. Here I noticed as soon as I took the amp off standby the left of the center 6l6 pair was glowing red hot.
At this point I assume that tube has shorted and take it out replacing both center 6l6s with ruby 6l6s I know are fine from my 6505. Boot it up again, same problem!! :roll:
Now the ruby tube in the center left position glows ridiculously bright and starts to emit a burning smell, it's neighbor on the center right appears to be fine.
Any idea what the problem could be here???
