This case is in very good condition. A few scratches and dings here and there, but they are solely cosmetic. As you can see from the photos, it actually looks quite nice. Casters will be removed and put inside for shipping. This is a very HIGH QUALITY case. $175 Shipped & Paypaled Ships to...

I just tried to reply to your PM, but it is staying in my outbox, so there may be an issue. My head was manufactured in 2013 and has never been gigged. Please contact me at 305-936-7052. I am hoping we can do this wed or thur. Thanks! Roy Strattman

Hey, are you still looking to do this trade? I am interested.

I posted another thread about this same problem, and this was my solution: "OK, I just wanted to report that I sold my Rectifier 2x12 Horizontal cab with V30s, and bought a Mesa Widebody Closed-back 1x12 with a C90 and it COMPLETELY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. There is no ice-picky harshness at all...

OK, I just wanted to report that I sold my Rectifier 2x12 Horizontal cab with V30s, and bought a Mesa Widebody Closed-back 1x12 with a C90 and it COMPLETELY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. There is no ice-picky harshness at all there any more. I can now even use the EQ presets and they sound great. What...

I use the Ground Control and the GCX with my Mark V, TC Electronic G Major 2, and pedals. Everything works wonderfully together!

I used to have this same problem in a Nomad 45 that I owned. Believe it or not, it was because NOTHING was in the FX loop. In order to solve the problem, I either had to have something in the loop...OR, simply one cable plugged into the in/outs of the loop. Then the problem would stop.

Have you tried John Petrucci's Road King settings? I'm not a huge fan, but I like his sound, and it's tight. If I remember correctly, he doesn't use the EL34s on the RK, so it should translate perfectly to the Roadster. May be a good starting point for you...

Wow, thanks so much for all of the suggestions! I am going to try some of the suggested trouble shooting because I'm not ready to give up on this one yet.

Hmmm, gonna look into the filmores. Don't know much about them. Thanks for the info.

Hey, yes, I thought of that. Someone was trading a C90 for a V30 on here recently, but I just missed it. I use a few guitars. Les Paul, Godin LG signature, Strat, & Parker Fly Mojo Singlecut.

Thanks so much for the DETAILED reply. You probably saved me a lot of trouble here. I am finding it to definitely be preferable in variac mode. Gonna try some tube swaps. I actually bought a Road King 2 just recently, used from GC, but something in it was vibrating badly...probably the...

Thanks a lot for this very helpful info! My wife doesn't know this yet, but she does not like you at all. Now you've got me considering keeping both. I mean, what's the difference between having the amp or having the cash? I can always sell it if need be, right? ****, I love amps, I love...
