I've got a Fender Vibrolux Reverb amp that only produces a LOUD :eek: 60 Hz buzz. My first guess is that the rectifier (5U4GB) is shot, so I'm about to replace it. If that doesn't work, the next culprits are either the filter caps or the heater circuit diode. After that I'm at a loss. Any thoughts?
