Hello,
I have a relatively new DSL40CR that I purchased in new condition from someone who was the original owner. The power crapped out on me when I turned it on yesterday (pilot light and all lights out). I have checked the power fuse and swapped it out with a new one without improvement. I doubt the power cable is the source as I keep it connected at all times to a surge protected extension cord which I switch off the power of when not in use (power strip still functioning and have tried other wall plugs).
The amp is still under manufacturer warranty and also has Guitar Center Pro coverage plan. I called the pro coverage and they state it will not take effect yet as the amp is still under warranty. I don’t want to open the chassis and risk voiding the warranty with my own troubleshooting. Marshall is closed for the weekend so I haven’t been able to reach them to make my claim until Monday.
I’m sure I will have to ship the amp back to Marshall, I am wondering how long this process usually takes as this is my only amp… Do you know of any alternative through Guitar Center or with this coverage that can help me get a working amp asap (obviously without buying a new one in the mean time)?
