Hi, I had a head cab made for my MkIIC+ a while back. I believe it was Board user GTS (George Stergiou?) Not sure if he is still active on the Board, but he did an awesome job on the Cab. Good luck!

I also had a head shell built by GTS for my Mark IIC+. I did straight Black, but I should have done White! Anyway, he does real nice work & price was reasonable. I also have a IIb, but I've never tried that head in the GTS Cab. Verify the measurements first..

An update to my post from 3.28.12 After messing with the orig MkV FS cable, the new cable from my repair shop & my Roadster cable, I could not get the relay problem corrected. It was just too sensitive and unreliable. I finally ordered a new 20' 8 Pin DIN cable from Best Tronics...

My MkV also went crazy with crackling & popping relays. Pretty much out of the blue. I'd been gigging with it since I got it in Summer 09 with few or no issues. After the relay problems started, I tried swapping the cable from my Roadster. The cables are very finicky. The Roadster had similar...

I also use an Eventide Timefactor in the loop. Loop vol around 12:00. If I run the Timefactor in front of the amp, it sounds great for Ch1, but Ch's 2/3 sound awful with the same delay settings. Just because in general, delay sounds much better after distortion than before. But with delay in the...

Had the same problem on several gig's shortly after I bought the TA15. Called Mesa, they suggested it might be V1 (12AX7) and sent me a replacement. Still the same issue. Intermittent serious power loss. Finally, replaced both Mesa EL84's with 2 matched JJ 84's and it has been fine ever since...

Called Boogie about this. After describing the symptoms, they suggested replacing the 12AX7 in V1 position and not the power tube(s). They sent me a replacement under warranty. Changed it out, and so far it seems to be working properly, although I've only done a couple gigs, so I haven't put...

Here's a good TA15 demo at GP site, excellent player also: (3 part video, let it run) http://www.guitarplayer.com/GearVideo.aspx?bctid=87285538001

I have both and end up using the MkV almost exclusively. I must admit I am more of a Mark guy than Recto guy, but I find the V easier to dial in in general. Also depends on the type of gig I'm doing. if you can swing both, stereo sounds like a massive idea! Either way, I don't think you'll be...

I've had my TA15 for a little over 2 months and it has had the exact same problem several times, the latest being during a gig last Sat. Have tried flipping to Standby, changing modes, channels, etc. Usually powering off/on corrects the problem, but this time, I had to change to Normal mode and...

I purchased a Roadster Head off Ebay, and although it was packed well in a roadcase & padded box, it had a variety of electrical problems including intermittent volume loss, crakling, etc. Took it to a Certified Mesa Tech and it had a couple bad tubes and other components. He fixed it for a...

Try carrying a Roadster 2x12 combo. Even with 2 people, so **** heavy!

My Xotic RC Booster is always on at the end of the signal chain. For a little extra, I throw in a Fulltone Fulldrive 2 w/boost or OCD for more punch on Ch 2/3, or just to crunch out Ch1

I've been trying to get a "family portrait", but I don't think they've all been in one place at the same time!! When I think about dragging them all together for a picture, I conveniently find something else more urgent! I rely mostly on the MkV & TA15 for gigging, with either the Roadster 2x12...

The bands I play in mic all instruments & drums, even for smaller venues/clubs. Mostly an attempt to keep the drummers from killing everyone with volume. Try to convince them the PA is doing the work, keep the stage volume moderate (good luck w/that!) For practice, though, just the amps and no...

Two Transatlantics side by side with room left for a beer

I've used the TA on 2 gig's so far, (7 piece oldies band, Hotel ballroom, 4 piece R&B, small club), as well as practice with 4 piece Classic rock outfit. Either with 1x12 Express or 2x12 Roadster cab. Cab was mic'd to PA on both. It's certainly loud enough for all these situations. In fact, I...
