    Where do you buy fuses for the 290 power amp? Can't find them anywhere

    It looks like the place to buy them is directly from Mesa. Or, if in the US, from Walmart - but for a premium price. I haven't found them anywhere else. https://store.mesaboogie.com/products/fuses-250-volt-slo-blo-1-4-x-1-1-4-6-3-mm-x-32-mm.html...

    Triaxis - Lead 2 Drive

    I had this issue with the treble control when in LD1 Red mode. Then it progressed to all channels: I had no treble control anymore. I sent my Triaxis to Mesa for repairs, and when I got it back it was working properly. The invoice says that they replaced 8 capacitors and the ribbon cables.

    About replacement faceplate membranes for the Triaxis

    Mesa hasn't had them available for a long time, and based on what they told me when I spoke with them recently, they aren't planning to get any more. I think that's a disaster and spells doom for a lot of Triaxis out there whose buttons barely work or are close to falling off. How will people...

    Where do you buy fuses for the 290 power amp? Can't find them anywhere

    The 290 manual says it uses 6 1/4 amp SLO-BLO fuses for Canada and the US. I can't find those anywhere. And this is the third time I've tried looking for them in the last couple of years without finding them available. https://www.amazon.com/Fuse-Slo-Blo-6-1-Amp-package/dp/B008OZ4V9E Where...

    Does the clean channel sound the same on all Triaxis versions?

    Is the "phat mod" the only difference between V2 Triaxis'?

    Mesa says that V2 Triaxis preamps from March 1997 until October 2004 have the phat mod: https://mesaboogie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/217784798-What-TriAxis-version-do-I-have- I'm possibly interested in getting a used Triaxis, and if i do I want a V2 without the phat mod. If the phat mod...

    NIB Strategy 500 on Craigslist for $3,000

    Well, a buyer would be able to issue a chargeback or initiate a claim with eBay if it wasn't work as advertised, so I'm guessing that's just to avoid any buyer's second-thoughts about the sale that might occur. The price is very high, but The last few you saw probably were not mint condition...

    Mesa Boogie Strategy 500

    I know this is an old thread, but it's something I've been wondering about. I contacted Mesa to ask about the same question, and I received the answer that Ishred365 has given, that the safe thing to do is to set the volume to 0 and presence to 10 on the channel that isn't being used. The...

    Do an idle-channel's tubes in a stereo amp experience wear?

    Hi. If sending a signal through only one side of a 2 channel power amp, will the tubes in the side that's not used experience any wear from the amp being turned on, and the other channel played through?

    Strategy 500 just outta storage, almost no volume

    I've got it worked out. I replaced all the 12ax7 and 6550 tubes together, and got one side of the amp playing normal. Maybe I just didn't test both sides after swapping one of the tube types before. I assume there was a bad 6550 on one side, and a bad 6L6 on the other - now there's just the bad...

    Strategy 500 just outta storage, almost no volume

    Here's a large picture I just took of the inside: http://i.imgur.com/W8qTN95.jpg Also, I looked at the tubes while they were running, and none were glowing in any abnormal way. I'll take a picture of them, too: http://i.imgur.com/Slb10ot.jpg

    Strategy 500 just outta storage, almost no volume

    Hello. I've just taken my Strategy 500 out of being in storage for maybe 2 - 3 years, and have been checking it up, seeing how it's doing. When I put it into storage, it worked and sounded normal, apart from volume only recently starting to fade in and out on one side of the amp. But now, after...
