Have the output transistors checked. That can be a source of failure. This is something you can do yourself if you have electronics experience. If you take it to a tech they should be able to pinpoint the problem by troubleshooting the amp.

Can i connect 2 jbl 300 watt speakers to the mg 100hdfx 100 watt amp head ?

Yes you can as long as the speaker impedance when paralleled doesn't go below the rating of the amp. Marshall seems to hide their design lowest output impedance. Possibly you can find that in your owner's manual. Then find the impedance of the JBL. If half the JBL impedance is equal to or greater than the lowest impedance the Marshall is rated, you are fine to use it. The speaker Watt rating should always be bigger than the amp rating which it is in this case.

Have marshall mg100 hdfx head -power it up and blows fuses right away!

This is either a shorted component in the power supply section or in the power amp electronics itself. Continuing to replace a fuse MAY damage additional components. Take unit in for servicing.

So, i think I've blown the fuse in my Marshall MG 100 HDFX head (I tried to run 2 speaker cables out of the head into a quad...stupid >.<). What type of fuse do these heads use? How can i access...

The fuse is inside the unit so as to force you to open it and look for damage.

The fuse is likely a 3 amp/250 volt type.

Replace the fuse and then put a 100 Watt light bulb in series with the hot side of the power input. If the lamp stays lit with no load on the unit, then there is damage that requires repair before use. If you just replace the fuse repeatedly you may damage further components.

In the future obey the minimum resistance load on your amps.

IS IT HARD TO REPLACE COOLING FAN .MG 100 HDFX?

Hardest thing is getting the chassis out past the Tolex covering. Sometimes it catches and you have to use a knife blade to hold it out of the way.

Make sure to use an identical fan with identical ratings. Some of these are throttled depending on sensed heat. For those, an exact model fan should be used.

I have a rumble 100 bass amp which used to work fine until now! I've had it about 2 months and have only played it about a dozen times. Today, while practicing with a new band, 90% of volume got lost. Now...

It unfortunately sounds like a blown speaker. Try getting at the speaker and gently moving the cone with your fingers. If you feel a rubbing sensation you will most likely have to consider a new speaker. Make sure you get one with the same impedance (ohms) and the same or better power handling.

Feedback noise when overdrive is on

it could be your guitar pickups. try using another guitar or getting your pickups waxed at your local music store. also if your playing in a small room kind of loud, or if your using single coil pickups (like fender statocaster pickups) you will definitely get a feedback noise. if that does not work let me know.
