so i have a 70's kustom 250 watt bass amp, and a custom kustom 2x18 cab. i've had it a few years, before that it was my dads. anyways it stoped working one day. i used to use a dj mixer for some of its effects on my little amp and i got it sounding good. when i hooked it up to the kustom it had no sound then made the loud pop like when you shut it off, and now its completely not working...any suggestions?
Confused

Does it still turn on? I mean does it light up when you push on the power switch? If not then check the power fuse. It's located inside the amp, along the edge of the chassis.

If it does light up do you hear anything from the speakers? Hum, noise, hiss? Are both channels dead?

the lights never worked when i had it (have any? hahahaha) but no i dont think its turning on cause the speakers dont do the loud pop. i had it opened b4 but didnt notice any fuse. i'll have to pull it outta storage and take a gander.
