I just have a couple of questions if you wouldn't mind helping me out when you have time to reply, i am suspecting my cab (marshall 1960a) is poorly. It was intermittently working. Similar to the sound of a faulty guitar cable when you wiggle it. After testing different cab and guitar cables and still having the same problem i tried my head with a different cab which worked fine. Upon trying my cab again the fuse on my amp blew. I'm guessing this was because the load had no (working) cab to go to. I took my fuse to maplins and they pointed out what i needed.

Question 1: Any idea what's wrong with my cab?
Question 2: My blown fuse has the markings "T2E" and the new ones have "T2L". Are the new ones safe to use?

Hope to hear from you soon
Thanks
Deano

edit: my amp is a marshall jcm2000 tsl100

I'd guess you have a bad wiring connection in your cab or the jack is faulty. You'll need to open it up and have a look. At worst, it'll cost $5 for a new jack, assuming you have basic soldering abilities.

You should check your amplifier specifications to see what you can use. If you don;t have them, the website should.

Don't plug it in again until you get the cab fixed. :)
...so ever since then, I always hang on to the buckle.
