PT that goes "boing" on cold starts

The Fender Showman Reverb needed a power tranny. Original one blew, partially due to the nominal OEM fuse replace by a 20-amp one. I replace the Schumacher with a Mercury Magnetic eq. All is ok... good power. But, on cold starts, like after the amp has been sitting for a couple of hours, the PT will make a distinct "boing" on start-up. Almost like a spring going off. I've used MM PT on other smaller amps. Never have this issue. Any worries? Anyone else have this happen? Thanks! And an early Happy Turkey Day. |
