Default Marshall Amp(solidstate) fuse?

ok guys hey, I was recently given a non working 1986 Marshall 5210 1x10 solid state combo, I thought first things first, Lets check the fuse. so what I did was the old wrap the fuse in aluminum foil to complete the connection (sure enough it worked) SWEET, anyways I can't leave it like that, where do you guys get your fuses? this is a hard one for me to find, its very small and the only thing I know about it is this: 120v.-T1A.240v.-t500ma(does this make any sense to anyone?)

thanks guys
Rob

Just about any store that sells electric equipment with a semi-decent service department has fuses too. Radioshack et al probably have them too.

Digitech... Mouser... any electronic supply store should indeed carry those.

The T means timed fuse, or Slo-Blow. You can either use a 120v 1A or a 240v 500mA (.5A). When you double the voltage, you cut the amperage in half, so either labeling will handle the same wattage. It's a very common fuse.
