Re: Hot PT in BF Bassman.... "Warm" is so subjective Steve.   Warm to hot is really normal.   We all like to think the PT should never get very warm but I've had many vintage and new amps with power trannys hot enough that after an hour or two of use, I can't grab the top "like a baseball" more then 5-10 seconds due to the pain... they never failed and never sounded bad from being so hot.     Bruce
