    FS: Roadking 2 head (treadplate)

    Mesa Roadking 2 head (UK version) Black upholstery with custom (factory fitted) metallic treadplate. Immaculate condition (like brand new). Bought from PMT Birmingham. Expensive purchase @£3600 to realise a rectifier isn't the amp I was looking for! Custom made hard case. West Midlands...

    Is the Dual Rectifier still the right amp for me ?

    rocknroll9225 - in your opinion how would you compare the jvm and MK V? I love the fluid feel of the JVM for solos but it kind of ends there, wondered if the V has that 'feel'? Something I don't get with my Rectifier. Apologies for hijacking !

    Is the Dual Rectifier still the right amp for me ?

    I own a rectifier, JVM and owned a Stiletto. All totally different beasts and will never get them to sound the same even changing tubes, speakers, cabs, ts9 etc. In a perfect would you could get all in one amp! As for the Rectifier I'd say the same as Dom, Boost up front, eq in the loop and id...

    Ordered tubes from UK - no VAT?

    Should charge you VAT but need to be a bit more transparent on there online form by the looks of things. Could be perceived at sneaky! (Although they don't get to keep the tax) As per UK customs: How do you charge VAT to someone in another EU country? If you sell goods or services to...

    Neodymium Speakers - Worth their weight?

    I recently purchased a Celestion Century Vintage Neo, after years of wondering finally decided to take a leap of faith and get one. I'm a big V30 fan but also have other cabs with CL80's, Alnico Golds, Heritage celestions. So far I'm impressed, seems smoother than the v30 with less mid spike...

    Noise Perception ... Warning Loud Volumes

    I'm a seasoned guitar player in a Rock covers band that practice weekly and gig regulary during the month (small-medium bars/pubs sometime outdoor festival type stuff) When we play we play loud, we crank the backline and only use PA for the Bass drum and vocals. Our rule is to set levels/eq at...

    Audiophile geek question

    I love my Recto and I also love the sound and feel of my Marshall. This isn't a post trying to make my Mesa sound like my marshall or visa versa, just was wondering how in a 'technical' audiophile kinda way are they different? I know its not black and white and there are intangible variables...

    How to use Mark V head in apt., without the main cab?

    Not sure about price/ availability in your area but I'd say this is exactly what you are after: http://www.palmer-germany.com/86-1-pga04.html Palmer PGA-04, load box and speaker simulator. So no need for cabs/speakers, listen through headphones.

    Rock tone from recto?

    I know where your coming from, play similar stuff with my band. Generally my Marshall does the job too a tea but when I fancy using my recto I dial it in as follows: Channel 2 vintage, diode Gain 11 o'clock Treble 1 o'clock Middle 2 o'clock Bass 9 o'clock Pres 8 o'clock Just have to go with...

    Palmer PGA-04

    Sorry just re-read my post. What I meant was is how does digital modelling compare to say my boogie and a PGA? I know I'm stuck with ux2. Thanks for your reply

    Palmer PGA-04

    Currently running a simple recording set up using my computer and a line6 ux as the guitar input. I get annoyed that I have a Roadking and Marshall JVM in the same room (mic ing isn't my bag and most the time would be too loud). Think a Palmer PGA-04 would be a good buy? Can you compare one...

    Anyone have the new Sennheiser g3 guitar wireless?

    Roadster Brit similar to Stiletto?

    Traded my Stiletto Ace and DR in for a RKii because I thought the RK's brit mode would cover the crunch channel I loved so much on the Stiletto.... I was sadly wrong. As much as I like the 'Brit mode' it has less gain than the 'crunch'. seems less sparkle :( Add a TS9 to the brit mode and it...

    Anyone know how to mod Channel 2 of Road King?

    May sound silly, but went with my ears on this one. Dime the bass and put mids at around 2.30 (o'clock), zero the presence. (el34 + diode) dime the gain and push up the treble to add extra gain too taste (just before ice pick highs) get a nice classic rock tone, still not as heavy as I'd like...

    Pickups that enhance the sound of a Les Paul

    I play classic rock and metal and have two Les Pauls with Bare Knuckle Nail Bombs in the bridge (also two les pauls with burst buckers and burst bucker pros) awesome pickups! Lovely rich harmonics and tighter and slightly hotter than the burst buckers. Yes you are correct ... Bareknuckle fans...
