STOP USING THE STANDBY SWITCH ON YOUR GUITAR AMP!
In this video we will use a real-world example of a malfunctioning tube guitar amp to discuss why you should STOP USING THE STANDBY SWITCH at power-up. We will also explore ways to limit excess inrush current in an amplifier using thermistors. I will show you two places to put thermistors in your amp's power section which will help reduce harmful currents during your valve amp's initial heat up phase at power on.
