Amplifier is doing bad things
I have traded for an tube amp called a Mark 8, when I plug it up it powers on and starts to smoke near the back right transformer all the tubes look lit up, and also the cord heats up near the outlet. dead short I guess was hoping to get encouragment on that it sounds like it could be fixed. I will try to get pics up tommorow

WEll.... I found the problem, the screw that holds the top of the amp is screwed into the transformer. I got me a sweet looking paper weight!
