Thanks for the tip. I cleaned the effects send and return jacks but, it ended up being my volume pot on my Les Paul. Thumbs up to the guys at Tube Depot for picking out a great sounding set of Winged C SED 6L6 and EL34s. These guys use Boogie Amps and know there stuff.
Looking for a good source for tubes for a Mark III. Would like to get a pair of the SED 6L6s and SED EL34s. I have tried using Dougs Tubes and The Tube Store for power tubes with not such good luck. With Mesas fixed Bias it's picky on power tubes. Any suggestions. I've used Mesas 6L6 440s but, I...
Looking for the best overdrive to use as a clean boast or overdrive with a Mark III? Wanting something to use as a alternative to R2 for rhythm playing.
Anyone using a Fulltone OCD with there Mark III? Currently I have Been using a Xotic AC Boaster as a overdrive for a rhythm playing instead of using rhythm 2 on the Mark III. I tried the Fulltone OCD at Guitar Center thru a Lonestar Classic and it sounded killer with my Paul. Haven't tried it...
Just wondering if a plate current of 24.1 and 23.6ma will work with my Mark III. I will be running these with a pair of Mesa EL34 442s in the outer sockets.
I'm noticing a difference in volume in the channels on my Mark III. Could it be something as simple as the V2 preamp tube going bad, because if it where power tubes it would be all channels?
Looking for preamp tube suggestions for my Mark III Combo. I know this has been covered before but, I'm looking for fresh ideas. Also has anyone used a 12at7 instead of a 12ax7 in the phase inventer and R2 for a smoother tone? Thanks for your help.
I bought a set of the Mesa EL34 STR 450s for my Mark III and didn't like them a bit. Well maybe a little but, I think the 442 sounds better. Mesa no longer sales the EL34 STR 442s. Where can I find them?
It burnt a small part of the bottom of one of the 6L6 sockets. That is it the best I can tell. I looked inside and didn't see anything else. I think its just the bad EL34 that red plated the first go around. Thanks for your input.
