Thanks man. I was able to mess around a bit with it yesterday and today and it's exactly what I was looking for. I'm a happy guy...for now. I didn't get a 4x12. I got the 2x12 vertical slant. I was gonna get the 1x12 but for only $300 more I figured what the heck. I may wind up getting another...

I went to the store and get milk and eggs and stumbled upon this guy hanging around my local music store... :shock: I didn't even know this existed! I saw some clips online and then plugged in and I had to have it. I had a EVH 5150iii 50W and traded it in. I feel happy to be back in the...

Thanks to Monsta-Tone, I found the culprits! I'm gonna take these guys out and see what goes down.

Hey folks. So, I cracked open my amp & see that there nothing to clip on the volume pot so I guess that's done. I'm totally lost as to where to find the V6 for the blanket mod though. Any help here would be appreciated. I'll report back if I figure it out.

I currently have a MB DC5B combo With this beast inside. I've heard a lot about the V30s & was thinking of getting one to test out. http://www.zzounds.com/productreview--CELVINT3008 I play through 2 Epi Les Pauls, an Epi Explorer & an LTD KH-602. All humbuckers. I play rock, metal. I...

Thanks Monsta!

Sadly the link to the drawing is down. Can anyone repost it or send it my way? Thanks.

Hey guys. I've been futzing around with my DC5 amp for a few days now trying to refine my tone and would like to try the mods that Monsta has written about. Can someone share the drawings he is referencing with me please? A link to where it's stored online or if someone can email it, I would...

Ahh yes. I recall reading that post. Sounds very cool! I dont think I'll try to mod it myself but I'd like to know where the parts/ares that you mention are. IS this the schematic for the amp? http://www.tremolo.pl/Firmowe/MESABOOGIE/Mesa%20Dual%20Caliber%20[2].gif

I'm loving my tone but I'm curious to the mods you made to make it more awesome. Can you share those to see if I can find a tech to modify mine. Thanks!

So, I had a week of frustration dialing in a nice midtone full crunch with less bass flub on my DC-5 combo. I picked up an OCD and have been pretty happy with the liveliness it brings to the amp. I run it through the lead channel with about 55% volume, 25% gain & 60% tone. I feel like it adds a...

Dude. Call Mesa. They can sell you a cab head. That's what I'm planning to do this year. I emailed them and they told me they can have one sent to me.

I'm gonna try both he 0 settings start and do a search for the DC mods. It what I have found to work great is the Jettenuator by Soldano. That little box lets me play in my home office with the family sleeping with the master and mains set to 5-4. I get nice clean headroom and great preamp...

That was pretty awesome info. Thanks for taking the time to write that up. I came across this on a web OCD & Mesa search or I prob wouldn't have seen it since I belong to the Vintage section. I have a question. I recently picked up a DC-5 and dig it. (I actually had that "I wish I could play...

I :twisted: the search feature! Found some very nice usable tones in this long ago thread. Thanks folks!
