Is the fuse ok?
I checked briefly in the morning - they looks not burned. Will take them off when back home and check precisely.
Is Model 1 is repairable nowadays?
frankly - if you have problems releasing fuses from sockets .... find tech for repair
sch is here : Forte Mod 1 / 1A

as far as I know , and you have that info in linked thread - 4 fuses are 2 per channel , situated in rails
so , same value all 4
however , there is some serious problem if you have all of them burned in same moment
suggesting problem which can solve only competent tech , not someone asking questions for most trivial things
that's logical .... I know how to repair an amp , but when I need new spectacles , I'm going to ophthalmologist ..... not trying to learn his trade

do not forget prayer , prior to switching on
Forte 1 worked like a prayer itself for 10+ years...
I'd better pass to right doctor...

I've had the front power switch fail on one of my Forte amps before. You might want to check that as well, especially if you recall the action of the switch getting a bit rough before the problem appeared.
the front power switch
When turning it on I hear transformer hum. Less loud as usual, but clearly audible.
So switch is still robust.
