Quick update: Got the amp open today to have a look inside, and found that the fuse on the power transformer high-voltage secondary is blown. My hypothesis is that a power tube failed. It's a through-hole type, so I will have to pull the board to replace it (single-sided PCB). I think I'll replace it with a PCB mounted fuse holder or maybe run wires to a chassis mount fuse holder to make things easier if the fuse blows again in the future.
Luckily, it looks like there are no insulation-displacement connectors in this amp, unless I missed 'em.
