Been a while since I've posted here. I have a TC-100 coming soon and would like to set it up with my HD500 and have the HD control channels, solo, reverb, etc. I haven't had a midi amp in some time but seem to recall it is fairly easy to setup. Is anyone running a TC with an HD500? Anything...

Early version with attached power chord. Good condition overall with tolex bumps and bruises you would expect for an amp this age. The chassis is nice and clean though. Modified locally (Rochester NY) by John Nau. Footswitchable solo boost done exactly how Mesa builds them on Rectifiers now. As...

Price edit

I know, I know.... There is a part of me that wants to just keep it. I have been a multi personality nut case with gear lately.

I recently got this '07 Mesa Roadster Head from its original owner (fellow forum member). Been on somewhat of an amp quest and drawing from my previous experience with a Tremoverb decided to give the Roadster a shot. Cool amp, but over the past 6 years I have definitely become much more of an...

I will check that granger link out. Thanks for the heads up on that!

You are definitely paying attention :) -No I did not get my probe on it. I was making some assumptions based on a full set of bias readings someone posted with 6L6s and EL34s in the different combination of setting. I realize the variable is the actual set of tubes I have, but assuming those...

You were using the 6L6s in pairs? Speaking of that....does the Roadster work on 50 watt with only 2 Power Tubes as long as they are in the active socket pair? BTW, those KT77s are funky. I tried them again and worked them in and out of the sockets to make sure it wasn't a contact thing. I...

I am getting closer to wanting to do the bias mod to my newly acquired Roadster. I had EL34s in briefly and with the amp set to Bold/Diode the tubes could actually run too hot (set to EL34 too). That is why the manual suggests Spongy/Recto to keep it in the coldest possible setting. I was...

Curious what your settings are that you find it dark. I now have the Roadster jdurso used to own and although it is said the Roadster is pretty much the darkest Recto I do not find the amp dark at all. I have an Avatar 2x12 with a Governor (V30ish) and a Swamp Thang, which is kind of dark and...

Still available

I am on the EL34 side myself. Shouldn't be a big surprise seeing as the past 6 years were spent on Marshalls or similar. Depending on the set of tubes the Diode/Bold option on EL34 can get pretty hot, which is why they recommend the absolutely coldest settings. I had it running on Bold/Recto...
