Hi all, Practicing with my 2x12 Stiletto ACE today I noticed that on certain notes or chords the resonance causes something in the tube section of my 2x12 combo to buzz quite loudly. It doesn't come through the speakers but it's annoying because I can hear it even at fairly loud volumes. It...

Be keen to hear from others re dials on the ACE specifically your effects loop volume on the back if you are running a loop? I play mainly clean and rock covers with a 2012 USA Deluxe Strat with N3 pups. All positions relevant to a clock face (9 oclock, 12 oclock, etc) Channel 1 (clean) ...

Seriously? I have a couple of tungsols in V3 and V4 of my ACE 2x12 and it's working fine??? Could this damage the amp of just lead to posible drop outs? Is there any more info about likelihood, etc available?

Did you re bias with the JJ power tubes, or do they run ok straight in?

Cool, I'm 2 weeks into my Ace 2x12 Combo and I love it!!! Versatility plus. Perfect for band work, anything actually! The fact that it's been discontinued I think will be a plus in the future as more people discover what they are missing!! Congrats again! B73

Got a new set of power tubes under warranty. Great support Mesa! Also I've found if I turn the channel volumes up before the master and solo I get less noise, hardly any now. Love this amp!!!

Just bought it, the shop wanted to flog it as it new old stock, just wondering if it's been sitting around not doing much for a couple of years if a power tube replacement may be in order? But I guess with such good quality control they should be good for a few more years.

Thanks for your help. One last Q. Do I absolutely need to put mesa power tubes in or can I get JJs, etc? I don't have the bias mod, so fixed bias still.

Swapped out the v1 TS for a JJ. Mild improvement. Seems better if I crank channel volume before cranking master vol?

ok, tested with nothing plugged in an only noticeable noise was on tight and fluid gain, just a slight hiss. Not the other hum. Once I plugged the guitar in (no effects loop) I did get some hum on the Humbucker but not on the N3 noiseless Singles. I suspect this will worsen when effects loop is...

Hi all, Recently purchased a new Stiletto ACE 2x12 Combo. Firstly, love, love it. I can't believe it's been discontinued and there are so many haters who obviously have no idea about tone and cutting through the mix when live. Anyway, first time rehearsing with it last night and got quite a...
