No weird smell from mine. I know it's still getting power. Maybe it's time to get a solid state. >

But alas... I realized that my amp has two fuses, one of which looks toast. The filament doesn't look real bad, but the wire that surrounds it looks at least partially broken and the glass has inner burn marks. Maybe I'll get lucky.
