Any one know what that section of the board controls? What each resistor and capacitor does in the circuit? Really need some help here, the parts have been replaced/fixed but we looking for some answers before we fire it up. We have searched everywhere for a schematic but we cant find one.

So when i purchased my badlander off reverb i not iced that when i move the amp from side to side there was something rolling around inside, i figured it was no big deal as the amp was running fine. Today i took it for my tech to look at JIC and boy is it a good idea i did. So it turns out there...

So it seems the EL34 is the better sounding tube for the badlander if im reading through the lines.

I’m going to try the JJ 6L6s for sure but I may also get a set of JJEL34s as well to try

Thanks bro, plenty good info here.

As you talk about the 6L6, what diff does it make. Typically im a 6L6 guy as i love the scooped mids and fat low end but from what i have seen the badlander does not get any thicker with 6L6's, and it even seems to loose gain and output, but thats just with me watching vids online so if you have...

Thanks, would you say the ^L^ is an option i should consider for the badlander? Is there a noticeable increase in low end?

So based on your extensive knowledge and teaching i decided to ask mesa if i could buy specific colours in the el34s and his response was interesting. "Hey Scott Thanks for reaching back. Being the Mesa amps are a fixed bias amp, we have a very narry window of what we considered to be...

So I took a look at the tubes last night and the only designation I could see was on the grey area at the bottom of the tube that had BLU, I’m assuming that’s the blue heat range?

So euro tubes is saying that i can run the EL34 II thats what they recommend for the Badlander. They also say they suggest the 6L6GC but they will select a hotter 6L6 so that it runs the way it should so you get the sonic difference without a loss of gain and output. I think if i can afford it i...

ok thanks will check.

So got a chance to take a pic of the tubes that are inside the amp, its STR 447. How do I know what colour it is? I dont see any colour designation.

Thanks, how do i know the bias colour of the tube? Where do i look? This is the response from euro tubes about the badlander. Tell me what u think. "The important thing when swapping power tubes in a Mesa is that you put an appropriate grade (plate current) of tube in there. What grade is...

Wow thanks so much for taking the time to help me, i didnt know all of this. Im not even sure what the amp came with, it sounds great thow. I want the amp to be its fullest and loudest and most brutal, would that mean running the tubes hotter? Forgive me im used to 5150's where we bias a lil...

Thanks

Hey, i just got a 100w badlander used and i really love it. I usually retune all my amps with JJ's and make sure my tech re-biases everything so it slams. Is this possible with the badlander or is it fixed? Does it make sense making the jump to JJ's? If no where do i get tubes if i need to...
