It is bypassed when it is pulled.
As for the MXR, it is noisy. Keep in mind that I have no experience with any other EQ's besides this one, so it very well could be one of the quieter ones available. lol I guess anytime you boost some frequencies before the amp, it is going to introduce some...
First order of business is to install a depth mod, using the 5150 specs. For even more oomph, put it on a push/pull pot so you can pull it out and engage modern mode like the Recto's. This will disable your presence knob, but this all stuff you already know. :lol: I drilled a hole and put mine...
Hey Andy,
Thanks for posting this. :)
I never got back to you after you emailed me, and I did all the mods to my amp. Sounds great. I will post a video soon.
Thanks a bazirrion!
Up for sale is a Mesa DC-5. It is in pretty good condition, maybe a 9/10. Has all Mesa branded tubes. Also has the footswitch.
I have many references if you need them, as well.
I am looking for $500 + shipping.
Thanks for looking. :)
