Hi, I have 4 wheels from an old Lonestar Special 1x12 combo I sold years ago. I am going to use them on a Zilla Super Fatboy cab I have. Its very similar in shape to a 2x12 rectifier horizontal cab, just a little taller. I picked up some mounting plates for the wheels, but before I drill some...

Hi, Yes, I seen it on that thread and a few others. Have you tried this or just tried the Lss through a 6l6 power section? I've owned both before but considering a classic again. Always loved that chime from the special though.

Hi, I've seen it mentioned on here before that it's possible to use EL84 tubes in the classic if you use yellow jackets. Presuming this is true, how close to the special does it get? Both amps have the same same preamp section, so the only difference would be the power section. Obviously a...

Hi, I see you have a lonestar as well. How would you compare the cleans on both? Also regarding gain, is the ED bassier than the lonestar? Always found channel 2 too bassy on the lonestar . You should do a comparison vid 😉

Totally subjective I know, but if you have owned a few mesa's what do you think has the sweetest cleans? I have had a Lonestar classic/special, Mark v, Roadking 2, Royal atlantic, Stiletto ace and tried a Triaxis, mark 3,4, 2b, an F30 and a TA30. I might have tried a maverick as well but only...

Ya, there doesn't seem to be much on here about it. I don't see any used either. In Europe anyway. Maybe everyone is too busy playing their one to be posting on here. How are you rating the cleans and gain in comparison to other boogies? Presuming you have owned a few that is.

Hi, I'm curious about the fillmore series, the 50 especially. There doesn't seem to be many threads on here about the fillmore series in general. What's the general opinion of it? Is it considered to be popular or has it not been as well received as some of the big hitters like a mark, recto...

Thanks for the reply. So would you say its a dark bassy sounding amp? I'm more concerned with it being a bit boomy sounding than anything else. Is it as bassy sounding as a road king/roadster or less/more? From what I can make out, its a 70's gain sound (which I like). Just once its not too dark...

Hi there, Ive owned a good few mesa's over the years, but never played an electra dyne. One has come up that I am considering a trade on. I won't be able to try beforehand, so I have a few questions. Is the ED a very low mid/bass heavy amp? There are a few youtube videos but not an awful...

Hi there, Can anyone tell me the weight of the chassis of their lonestar(classic or special,need both) when removed from the head shell? I am considering getting a custom head shell built and want keep the weight down.I'm trying to make it weigh less than the mesa head shell if possible, so...

Hi there, I have owned 2 LSS combo's (1x12 and 2x12) and I have briefly owned a 2x12 LSC. I know the special far more than the classic, as I only had the classic for maybe 2 weeks max and it was 5 years ago or so. I have always loved the chime from the LSS. It's the EL84's I presume. According...

Hi,thanks for the reply.I have found someone to add some connections on to the end of the cables.Should work ok for quickly a/b ing. Then i can get it properly soldered when I decide which speaker to keep.Unless theres no real need to solder, or is it a better connection I wonder?

Hi, I'm changing the speaker in my 1x12 open back boogie cab, that I use with my road king 2.Im not a big fan of the C90, so I ordered a celestion creamback 75 and a celestion Alnico cream 90.My plan is to try both out and keep the one I like best and return the other for a full refund.Only...

I guess the switch could be going between tuner mute and say channel one,or going from channel one to another channel and back really fast.What makes me think it was the foot switch is the fact that it stopped instantly once the foot switch was removed.It also only happened at high volume.Maybe...

This is the connection part on the amp now and not the foot switch?

Ya, once the footswitch was removed the amp worked grand.Straight away in fact.Hasnt given any trouble since either so all is good.I did message boogie on facebook and they said it sounds like the foot switch caused it.But I think the person on facebook is just there for promotion, more so than...

Hi there,I just got to try a road king 2 that i am considering purchasing.Sounds great but there seemed to be an issue with what i think is the foot switch.Basiclally I was using channel 3 and the volume was at about 11 oclock and the amp started cutting out like a tremolo effect.At first I...

Its interesting actually.I picked up a LSS a few months back ,mostly for cleans as id had one b4 and wasnt too keen on the gain channel.Never actually tried it in a band the first time.But since getting this second one ive been using it a lot.funny thing is its cutting through fine.A lot better...

Ah thanks so much bandit.I didnt realise ya had gone to so much trouble removing speakers.Ill have a good listen now.Cheers

Nice one Bandit.Cheers
