As said on the title, I just have no idea of what this yellow taped pieces do! Thanks everyone for seeing or giving some advice on this!

By the way, I forgot to say that power tubes look very old, maybe they are the ones they put on at the factory back in the day? Amp looks very much like was made in 89.. :roll:

Hi folks! First of all thanks for watching this, well, as the title suggests, I am thinking on sending my Mark III Green Stripe head to a local tech for a proper power retube. Any suggestions on brands/models? I actually have (and wish to remain like this) 2 EL34 + 2 6L6. As far as I know I...

To me, this is "the" amp. As far as I know mine is from 2005, but I'm starting to get a little bit afraid about leaking caps... or shouldn't I?

No gigs here with none of my Marks (III & IV), only keep them for studio and rehearsing.

Hi! Just asking, are you looking for a configuration that allows you to have both sparkling clean and high gain ?

Got mine barely days ago. Can't stop playing it, sounds superb, had knew this before I would have directly purchased this beast many years ago.

Hi folks! Quad owner here, my intention is to keep playing fast thrash/death on lead channel 1 (even with IIC+ mods) because I find that channel vastly superior and more tight, then keep channel 2 for cleans, I know this sounds overkill, but I rarely see myself using channel 2, my idea is to...

Hi folks, any help finding precise pictures or schemas on how to do this? Searched across the net and most of what I found are dead links... Still Mesa Boogie takes care of this?

Hi folks! I just obtained a Quad Preamp some months ago and it came with all Chinese tubes, I think it sounds a little bit harsh to me now...so... I already have some spare NOS tubes at home to change V11,V13, V21, V23 and V12 positions... thing is... I actually go out the Quad from the Send...

Finally retubed this beauty months ago with Electro-Harmonix 12ax7. It went nice so far! Les noise and more crunch now.. :)

Oh, just by the way, would you share some settings for some lovely Hetfield crunch tone? just out of curiosity...

Simul 295 owner too! I also did some mods here and there to the Studio Preamp, I also own now a Quad...love these machines!!!!!!!

Maybe just more sense than using solid state power... Man, just try to find an option with power tubes to feed Studio Preamp
