SisterAbdullahX Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Just been given a Hartke HA3500 amp head as a freebie after winning a 4.5XL cab on e-bay (Cheers Martin!). The amp is totally dead after a power surge occurred mid gig. Last owner changed fuse and valve to no effect. Any ideas on what might be the problem? How much to repair? Know of any reputable repairmen in Yorkshire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOD2 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Well it's possible there might be internal fuses as well as the easy access one at the power inlet. I would check all the fuses I can find all along the way first before taking it to a repairman. So that would be the one in the mains lead, the one where the mains lead plugs in to the amp, then take the lid off and look inside for any more fuses or any obviously damaged components. Beyond that there's not much you can do without experience and test equipment. Check the sticky at the top of this forum for repairmen.

silverfoxnik Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I had a Hartke HA3500 that died on me not long after I bought it and I couldn't figure it out at all after checking fuses etc.. So I took it to a good local repairman and it came back good as new.. Hope it all works out OK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
