Don't know if my Blues Deluxe PR 246 is vintage or not given my limited knowledge - can get serial number if that helps - overdrive is not working and I know nothing about valves or anything else at this time - I have not turned it on, and looked to see if all the valves are "lit" - would that be the right approach - I'm thinking the overdrive not working could be a valve issue?

Vintage , no.They were introduced in the 90s.As far as the overdrive not working,Its a 2 channel amp with a footswitch, it could be the footswitch is bad or you can try disconnecting the footswitch and pressing the channel button until the red lite is lit and make sure your volumes are up and your drive is set high enough.Sorry, but just trying to cover the obvious and check the tubes would be next.
