I have a Rectoverb 50 combo, which I believe is essentially the same as a single but with verb... the breakup on clean mode is what I'm trying to work around currently :lol: I've been struggling to keep a pristine clean once at band volume, but yeah that brutal modern mode is what's keeping me...

Awesome pair! and killer looking LP How are you finding the cleans at high volume?

Hey all, I've recently been using a Rectoverb 50. I really love the amp especially channel 2. My only complaint is that I'm struggling to maintain clean headroom when playing with the band. Cleans sound great playing by myself but when things get cooking I can't maintain an actual clean sound...

Problem solved, V4 was cracked. Quite possibly my own fault. Pilfered a tube from my twin and will be picking up more

Cleans on the Mark III are superb. Think of it as a really supped up blackface

It's a Series II rectoverb 50 combo production years were early 2000s-2011 My only other amp is a twin reverb so no fx loop on that, would it be safe to run into the input of the twin from the fx send? I figured I would start by just swap out preamp tubes one by one to see if that solved anything

Last week I got a rectoverb 50 combo used from GC. Was shipped great, tubes removed individually wrapped etc. Fired everything up when I got it and instantly fell in love, worked for several days with no issue. Today on my lunch break I wanted to just hear that glorious tone for a moment, but...

I don't think its the fan - on mine at least. The first few times it happened, I assumed it was the fan as well right away, and went to turn it off, and when I did that it stopped. But after a few times, turning off the fan didn't make it stop. The footswitch thing I mentioned before seems to...

In terms of smoothing out, it really helps with leads on channel 2, at least for how I have my amp dialed. I generally dial my amps in from more of a rhythm player standpoint than lead player, and on channel 2, how I had it set when I played leads it just was lacking in smoothness and sustain...

I have noticed a similar thing on mine, I too thought it was the fan at first but that doesn't seem to be it. You know how when you first power up, all three channel lights are on on the footswitch? Well I have discovered that when that noise happens, it stops the second I select a channel. I...

Let me preface this by saying I am not normally a boost guy period, and especially not with the Mark V, but a recent purchase of mine has changed that. I recently got the Xotic BB Preamp with the Midboost knob, and I have to say, its like there is some sort of magic synergy between this pedal...

It sounds great at low volumes, but man is it hard to turn back when you experience this thing cranked @ 90 watts

FWIW their new album was recorded with Mark V's and that is what they are using on tour currently

Well I have a Line 6 M9 fx unit (really a great unit btw, I was weary at first because of the company, but once I got it that was all brushed away) and it works great, and seems to have overal very little noticeable tone suck. However, I have noticed that when I have the FX activated and the...

I just discovered a really cool fuzzy doomy sound Channel 2 Edge mode 45 watts GEQ was in a V, but messing that could possibly even improve this sound Gain: 10 Channel Volume: noon Presence: 1:00 Treble: 11:00 Mid: noon Bass: 10:00 Neck pickup on the guitar with the tone knob rolled ALL the...

Dry for me as well

I don't own a Roadster (would like to one day) but before I got my Mark V I tried one out extensively. I would say that the two amps complement each other very well, the Roadster being a heavy rhythm sound monster, and the Mark V being an angelic singing lead machine. I would love to run the...

The rumor I heard about Petrucci and the AXE-FX is that he is just using it for the FX in his main rig, and for the amp modelling too for overseas gigs

That sounds really good dude! What guitar/pickups are you using there?

There are clips of the same riff with both EL34s and 6L6's in this thread over at rig talk http://www.rig-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=72391 Hope that helps After sticking SED EL34s in mine, I have never looked back
