Hi all - can anyone give me some advice on how to find a fuse cap for a vintage 1959 Fender Deluxe amp? Some have told me to find a re-issue or even replace the whole fuse apparatus but I prefer to leave the old one and find a cap for it. A re-issue would be fine if I can't find an actual '59 cap.

There's one on ebay but they say it's for early to mid-50s Fender amps. Advice on what a normal price is for such a thing would also be nice to know. Thank you for your help!!

Not sure if these repro have the same cap will fit in original Fender fuse holder. They are not expensive to try. Your cap is a "snap in" not a "screw in.

Better to look on American made fuse holder, the one use in "good old days " like Bussman , Littlefuse. These or one of thes are the original fender fuse holder and you can use only the cap.

Mouser electronic must sell these.

Send us a picture of your cap, remove from the holder.

I can't post a photo of the cap because it's missing. This is a photo of an actual 1959 Deluxe fuse cap taken from this site http://los-angeles-guitar-shop.com/1959 ... ed-deluxe/ Image

It is very difficult to choose wich one yoiu need if I go to Bussman fuse .com or Littel fuse .com. The two major fuse company.

For myself I will orderd from tubesandmore the fuse holder SH-201 and hope just the cap will fit
