amplifier blown

[FenderBender02]

hey guys,

i just bought a new wah pedal(dunlop 535Q) and i connected the adapter(for the wah and another distortion pedal, linked by daisy chain) to one of those multiple adapters that u attach to the mains. then when i was playing with it for awhile and switching the 'variable Q' switch on my wah my amp suddenly just blew with a pop sound and i smelt something burnt, and after that my amp only had a loud buzzing sound when i turned it on. does anyone know what happened? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

Probably a blown fuse or blown capacitor on the amp.

Connect this way to verify: Guitar -> Amp (remove your pedal setup).

Your adaptor or other stuff have got nothing to do with it unless it involves your adaptor having some interaction with the amp power or somehow blowing your amp. Very unlikely and possibly impossible AFAIK.

What to do? Search the forum. "Spoilt amp" or something.
