I GOT it! I called Mesa & Chris told me I needed to put the front screws in first. Even he said that, for some reason, putting the front screws in will line up the back screws, but this will not work in reverse. Once I got the first screw started, it went as quickly as you would think it would...

I did some tube experimentation on my Mesa Road King II & took the chassis out to make it easier. Ir has two screws on each side of the bottom, tied together with chrome "straps". I have got the back screws on each side through the nuts that are secured to the chassis, but the screws on the...

Right now I'm running it through the stock 4 - Vintage 30s, but feel like I'm missing something tone-wise. In retrospect, I probably should have gotten the RK split cab. Anyway, I do have 2 brand new Warehouse Speakers BL80(Classic Lead clones). Has anyone here tried this 2+2 combination or CL80...

I had a similar problem with mine & it turned out that for some reason & had to work the loop switch on & off a couple of times & everything was fine. Tony

Pristine clean, AC15ish slight grind(remember I have EL84s in place of EL34s), nice sustainy lead tone & nice thumpy crunchy Recto distortion. I sort-of have these, but figure someone else might do it better. Tony

Nobody? Really? Tony

FWIW, I run EL84s W/ Yellowjackets in place of the EL34s. 6L6s & EL84s are my 2 favorite power tubes. Tony

I'm tired of the same old/same old settings. If you have any favorites, I'd love to hear about them & experiment with them myself! Thanks-in-Advance! Tony

Anybody have any favorites? I've got several NOS & current 12ax7s & a few 5751s I could use, but wonder what you guys have used & are using. Looking forward to your suggestions & experiences. Tony

IS it a secret? It used to be easy to find a current price list. I tried Googling it & found nothing! Anybody? Tony

Hmmm...interesting, thanks! Those are all new stock, right? Tony

Nobody, huh??? :cry: Tony :?

I like my tones now, but have several different 12AX7 & 5751s, including some older Mullard, RCA, Phillips, JAN etc. & think I might get some even nicer tones. If you have any suggestions, if only as a starting point, I’d appreciate you sharing them. I have a tendency toward a nice bright bite...

I didn't have much time, but I DID try the jumper & it sounded fine, so it IS in the effects chain. Now all I have to do is find it! Gawd, when it's right, ****, that amp is sounding great! Tony

I'll try the jumper first. I DID try switching to loop 2 from loop 1 & had the same results. I hope to get at it tomorrow, if not Thursday... Tony
