    Cat fuses. Slow or fast?

    I would like to know, what kind of fuse, is in the rear of the JL2? slow or fast blow?
    I'm talking about the fuse of main power supply...

    Thanks.

    There should be writing on the fuse body or end caps; that would tell the fuse rating and type. Most main fuses I have seen in tube amps are slow-blow to allow for turn-surge, but that is not a given.

    Why not contact CAT and ask them? Ken may even pick up the phone himself
