I just use my Historic 1959 LP with a set of boutique PAfs run through channel 2 with a touch of gain and reverb. At first I turn all the EQ nobs down and then add a touch of highs and mids while leaving the bass at maybe 7:00 o'clock. Like many Mesa's You really have to work the tone nobs to...

I wanted a vintage blackface tone that I just couldn't get from current Fender production amps. Check out croosroads clip #3 That ProReverb JBL tone eluded me until I got the lonestar Classic. It's that nice. http://www.crcoils.com/Sound_Clips/Crossroad_clips/crossroad_clips.html The LSS...

I like my LCC better with 34s and I do not want a Marshall. I can get the same sweet shimmery cleans with just a touch more mid sparkle and less low end hump than the 6L6s. At some point I'll try 6v6s but right now I've got the best sounding amp for my needs period. The best cleans of any...

cwhasp glad to hear your hitting some tones you like. If you get a chance I highly recommend you check out the EL34Ls. Not to say EL34L are better -that's not what it about here. Rather for the price of a tube change you can kinda get a new amp: -with a bit more mid presence and lushness...

The best advice I can give is to play with the EQ settings. Try killing the Bass and cranking the mids. The LSC won't do real hard stuff. About the hardest I could get is Led Zep and early ACDC with an LP and SG. and SRV with a strat. I typically use distortion more as a thickener and...

I has the oportunity to put my LSC through its paces comparing some clean tones on both channels with the DRRI and an original 64 Deluxe Reverb. let me tell you that right off the bat the DRRI was not even in the same league with the other two. Cleans through the LSC and 64 Deluxe Reverb had...

Ok so maybe that's over stating it. But after a temporary romance with multiple boutique amps I have come around once again to ol' reliable. Loaded with JJ El34LS together with a very nice CS designed strat and a couple of Lp historics I can go from huge lush and vowely to a chimey shimmer...

I listened to both LSS and LSC and both amps sound fantastic. With that said the LSS has a sweet chimey tone ithat is beautiful. dial in the sweet spot and the amp plays itself. However overall it is no where as versatile as the LSC. With the LSC, pop in a set of EL34L and you can get a...

After taking some time to dial it in, I got beautiful Fendery bf & tweed cleans with plenty of high end sparkle. I haven't played the amp very loud yet,so I can't attest to clean headrom; however, at moderate levels, the cleans have been very impressive with the el34L; and of course the...

Thanks, I have to give kudos for Fender on that one. I was actually looking to buy a CS62 or an EJ and on a buddies recommendation I also tried the JV Strat. While all of the strats played and sounded fanstastic, the JV is an absolute steal at the price. I wish Gibson had a similar ultimate...

Lonestar el34L, Gibson R7, R0/G0 and a JV Strat. I'm finally hearing the various nuances in my guitars. The resolution on the Lonestar is phenonemenal and it still sounds sweet.

Thanks for the feedback. I just installed the 4 JJ EL34Ls and 5 JJ pre tubes and I am very impressed. Tonally there is a big difference. The mids open up with a huge dimensional harmonically rich presence that reminds me of my friends modded 62 Bluesbreaker RI. I can't imagine the Stiletto...

Hi I'm happy to have bought my first Mesa. A nice blue LSC. After fooling with a DRRI and a couple of other Fender amps I bought an LSC on the bay. Best move I've made. It is a versatile tone machine that is capable of producing the best clean tones I've heard. I wanted something in between...
