I've been playing bass a lot lately, and this amp deserves a better fate than collecting dust in my room. It's in a non-original (and not very pretty) wood headshell. 4 Mesa and one EHX 12AX7s with low hours, 2 Mesa 6L6s with less than 20 hours on them. No issues, this amp is great! I still have...

This 3 cord method works great for my .50, but when applied to my Nomad, nothing happens. lol. One down, one to go. FX loops for dummies continues. :)

Hey Mrmot, thanks for the help. I connected them in 2 ways: 1. guitar>gt8>effects return and 2. guitar>gt8>input I made sure to disable all of the preamps and cab sims when going into the input, I knew that would cause poor sound. Going into the effects return wasn't bad, it was just like...

You can never have too much gain on a Boogie! Actually, I used a TS-808 patch with the GT-8 and the gain turned down to around 4 on the lead channel and it was great! As for the other effects, they sound good on the rhythm channel, but terrible on the leads. Too much gain maybe? Perhaps a new...

I think this is called "The 4 cord method". I've seen it discussed, but I never thought about it in this instance. Doh! I'll try that. Running a chorus and vibe pedal in front of the amp should yield the same result as running the GT-8. I can set the GT-8 just as a chorus or vibe or other...

The subject title pretty much sums up my dilema. I am not asking for much, just a little chorus and vibe on top of my distortion. I love this amp, but I must have my effects. I suck without my effects. I tried running a GT-8 into the effects return, and that worked, but it pretty much made the...

So I just bought a .50 cal head, and after I sent the money it dawned on me that I don't know the difference between the .50 cal and the .50 cal +. I went to Mesa's site and checked the manuals, they look identical except for a bit about an EQ switch on the "+" version. Is this the only...

Thank you thank you. It's also pretty sold lol. Thank god, too. I was only going to give it about 48 hours on the block before I kept it. It's like selling puppies.

Seriously. I liked this amp with my PRS humbuckers, but when I plugged my strat and SG Jr. into it I absolutely fell in love! 45 watts of huge soul crushing sound. It really inspires me to play the single coils more, and even those pesky split positions on the PRS.

Buy these amps, so that I may in turn buy an amp! These are not corks to be sniffed, but I'm not asking much for them either! I've got one Mesa and trying to score a second. These amps are addicting as hell! Flextone II 2x12 combo. My main amp for a while. It's never failed me, but I did...

I did a bit of research today and I am having mixed results. I have it narrowed down to a few, but between those few I am utterly lost. I was looking at Rectoverbs, but then I found the Tremoverb. It seems infinitely complex, with channel cloning and a bazillion knobs. But between the Rectro and...

LOL they won't be happy when I play their amps for 5 hours and then not buy anything, but hey, that's what floor models are for, right? :lol:

Dang! Those clips are making me want a Rectoverb something fierce! Well done.

The recto blast isn't a necessity, but I would like to get heavy saturated distortion. I will have pedals in the mix, so I could push it with a high gain pedal if need be. I'm think I'm leaning toward a rectoverb. I should look at the local Mesa dealers and see what they have. I'll definitely...

Wow, 100 lbs! I'm a strong guy, but I would hate to bus that to and from gigs. What about a Rectoverb?

Greetings Boogie f(r)iends. I'm looking for a Mesa amp, but I'm not sure which one to get. I like to play a broad range of music, jazz, blues, rock, some metal. I need a very diverse amp. I would prefer a combo. I have a 4x12 cabinet, but I hate hauling it out of the house. I like my cleans to...
