Any words of widsom changing amp fuses?

Replacing fuses, either the outer main AC, or the inner rail fuses is pretty straight forward. Just unplug the amp, use the right sized screwdriver (or tool) to avoid burring up the fasteners, and remove the top. Be sure you use the correct replacement fuse.

My McCormack amp DNA2 uses a "Slow Blow" outer fuse and will constantly blow standard fuses of the same amperage rating during turn-on. The "slow blow" fuses allow the initial rush of higher amperage to pass through the fuses with out blowing them. Replace the cover with the same care you removed it, and have a nice cool Bud. Cheers.

You might want to use one of those plastic fuse pullers that are popularly used with car fuses. Please be careful since your capacitors may still be charged and, even after you unplug the amp, you can still get quite a jolt if you use your fingers or meatal tools in there. The slow blows are great ideas (no comments from the peanut gallery please). Some folks have reported better sound after using ceramic fuses rather than glass ones. Some folks have also reported improved results after cleaning the fuse and fuse holder (careful there though)with contact cleaner.

Make sure you use the same type/grade fuses. If you don't you risk damaging your amp if they don't blow at the right time.

tweezers (like the ones on a Swiss Army knife) come really handy for popping them out (and plucking them, should you drop them inside the gear)
