I've had my DR for about a year now and have tried everything to try to get the sound I was looking for. A TS9 helped a lot but it was still lacking. Then I added a Mesa 5-band EQ pedal to my board and WOW!, what a difference! The DR is a great amp but there's so much more Mesa could have done...

Original (1st gen) Peavey 5150 with Marshall A/B 4x12 cabinets. I am the original owner. The 5150 is all stock (no mods) and includes the original foot switch. Both Marshall cabinets were purchased in the early 80's. The slant cabinet has (4) original Celestion G12-65 speakers. The straight...

Matt, I think I know the sound you're looking for. I too thought about replacing my Tube Screamer with a Grid Slammer but soon came to the conclusion that the Tube Screamer is doing exactly what it's supposed to do, just as your Maxon 808. Replacing it with a Grid Slammer might offer some...

I have a Tremonti SE Custom for sale in the classifieds. http://forum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=68193 I'm not sure why folks say these guitars are "freakishly light". This one weights close to 10 lbs., which is one of the reasons I've decided to let it go. The Tremonti SE Custom has...

Thanks KiwiJoe! I just received the EQ pedal and haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'm going to have to find room on my pedalboard. Man, this thing really takes up some real estate!

Thanks for the response! Could I replace my TS9 with the EQ pedal? Does it work THAT well?

Can the new five band EQ pedal be used as a clean boost as well?

Well, I called Mesa after reading this thread and was told the "Grid Slammer" is in fact what I would want to use to replace my tube screamer. I guess maybe I didn't explain myself clearly to the first person I spoke with. I dunno.

All channels share the same tubes and the issues are only with channel 3. :?: Took the amp in for service last night.

When I first got my DR, I noticed a higher presence on channel 3 which I later discovered was just a different value for the presence control. Otherwise, channel 2 and 3 were pretty much identical. From then on, I have been using channel 2 because it sounded "warmer" to my ears and never used...

I'm looking to replace my TS9 with one of the new Mesa pedals but the problem I have is that all of the new pedals offered by Mesa are demo'd as distortion pedals over clean channels. So, I contacted Mesa and was told the Flux Drive is the best pedal for this application. :?:
