Got an old Challenger CA Danelectro amp on the bench. Plugged into my bulb limiter the bulb is dead, no glow at all. Plugging the amp into the outlet blew the circuit breaker instantly. Never run across this issue before. Quite odd. Any clue as to how, or why, this would be happening? Btw the tubes do glow when plugged into the limiter.
