With all the tubes removed (including the rectifier), does it still blow the fuse with no signal applied? Most commonly, it’s a tube issue but if not, check the filter caps. Confirm the polarity on all electrolytic caps is correct per the schematic.
Did you notice any electrical smell when the fuse first blew? If so, check the power transformer.
