give the SH-5 a shot. i tried one in my Les Paul Classic and fell in love.

wow i havent been on this board in a LONG time. I have the chance to get in trade a Mesa 3/4 back 4x12 cab. im wondering if anyone here has any good experience with it and if you have any praises or complaints about it. as far as size of the cab....how big is it compared to a Mesa...

i have tried many different ODs for boost(DS-1, TS-9, TS-808, OD-808, MXR M-108, BYOC Screamer). a few months ago i picked up a MXR Micro amp and my search was over. IMO this is the "perfect" boost for me. it doesnt boost the bass over the top.

Nice amp...... When i got my 2 channel DR it came with Mesa SPAX7As throughout the preamp like yours.....from my research those tubes were designed for V1 only. If you really want to open that amp up you might want to look into replacing them with some 12AX7s. i personnaly perfer a mix of...

no sorry but im set on pickups. thanks for the offer

I just bought an EMG 85 to replace the 81 in my explorer. So now the EMG 81 and all the pots/wiring. Im looking for $80 shipped and paypaled. Im always opened to trades though. Just make trade offers

i have never tried to mod it. i can take a good look at it today when i get home from work

The head compartment is 26" wide x 12" deep x 10.5" high. Let me know

IMO 5150s sound great through recto cabs. back when i had a 5150II my band played a show and we shared gear with another band there. we used our own heads and guitars but to save room we borrowed cabs. i got lucky to usea recto cab and i was amazed.

huh? Everything updated
