[master_nate]

Send a PM to me or Agedhorse and we can assist.

Thanks for your help. You guys are awesome. I have to say I haven't played through an amp since I got the Streamliner that even comes close.

Hi there,

I'm afraid I have to bump this topic. I bought my Streamliner 900 new in October 2013 and a couple of weeks ago I notices the "tube tank" remained dark after startup and started to shine a couple of minutes delayed. In the meantime the problem intensified and the blue interior light developed a life of its own - sometimes it's on, sometimes not. I would be very thankful If anybody here could give me advice on what the failure is and how this can be repaired.

Best wishes from Linz/Austria,
Chris

... The LEDs are purely cosmetic...

The answer I was looking for -- my blue lights just gave up the ghost so I remembered reading about replacements but wanted confirm it was purely cosmetic--so I can keep playing it!

Yes only cosmetic. If you need, I can send you a set of new LEDs just PM me with your mailing address and I'll get them out to you.

Dropped an email to support over at GB. Couple of days ago.. Received a confirmation email from Fender. But have yet to receive a response from a human. Anyone have an idea on how long it takes to receive a response?
Thanks

@agedhorse would be the guy to have a conversation with.

Opps im slow.

That is great to know old horse! How hard is it to switch them? I really not concerned with doing it... but was just wondering. I guess since you are offering to send a set... it can't be to hard. Are they specific/proprietary or can they be gotten locally?

They are not a DIY repair, double-sided pcb.

[agedhorse]

Some guys are tech or engineers, others have a good service shop they have a relationship with.

Hey Roy, hows that stock car going for you?

Hey Roy, hows that stock car going for you?

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.
The arena is empty except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

He's going the distance.
He's going for speed.
