Laurent your amp looks beautiful. I've had 2 Studio.22+ amps since 1993. Built like tanks, they've been gigged literally 100's of time, no issues. Incredibly versatile, they have some of the best cleans I've ever heard, and that's saying a lot since I'm a vintage Fender fanatic.

Clapton sounds great on the clip u referenced. then again he pretty much always sounds great. i play humbuckers thru LSS so my sounds lean in a different direction than single coils thru LSC, but i got the reeder mod done and like it. i just consider the channel1 sound more to my taste so it...

btw djw, thanks for the barber tip! and also for your other posts, for that matter. i've learned alot from the knowledge u and the other regulars here have been so kind to share. best wishes!

based on djw's advice i started researching barber pedals, youtube comparisons etc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsuJ0M0UEkc that guy gearmandude does excellent comps of various pieces... i wound up with the barber 1/2 gainer and it is great. like djw said:very transparent-it let's the sound...

it works on the lss

nice sound nice song

i like the sound of kinman pups in my strat cool switching options w the harness, relatively easy to install BUT i had issues w kinman pups i installed in my tele and i found mr kinman to be snotty, condescending and unhelpful when i tried to get his help so my take on his product and snotty...

no harm done...

yes i had a tech install ftswitchability for effects loop on bot my studio .22+ combos so i can switch the loop in/out i used to love that-haven't used it in a long time i put alnico blue dog in one of the .22's nice although the stock mesa spkr was fine also had a tech put the ftswitch drive...

perhaps it's just so clean lds can keep up with distorted ones to me distorted sounds tend to give an impression of being louder than a comparable clean sound

i have the quad-love it! tone for days, versatility galore i can't imagine anyone not finding their tone with it rich cleans, ripping gain ftswitchable eq's go for it!

after some investigation, i realize my prri is NOT suffering from cab rattle like i initially thought- it is bass farts like others have described! when i set v5 b5 t5 it is mostly clean (a very moderate setting to be sure), but if i play 2-3 low notes together it makes a 'blapping' sound. the...

Mine is new, though I'm not sure how long it sat in the store. I guess I could call Mesa and ask what year it is, and if it is the new model with the fixed problem. When did they have this issue? Do you knnow if you can do a product date search with the serial number from their web site...

i replaced one rectifier tube in 2 1/2 yr i've read here that there was a rectifier tube issue with earlier models, but supposedly mesa fixed it, and has retro-modded amps to address the problem...

yup when in doubt, trust your ears!

my opinions keep changing, but this is what i've been digging as of right now: 5watt setting "o'clock" #'s: G-12 T-10.5 M-9 B-11.5 P-1.5 M-10 Output-2 i read somewhere here that keeping the channel masters lower and turning up output cleaned up the low end. the writer's idea was that...

agreed!

where did u insert the shim? did u take the front off the prri to insert the shim? thanks! I cut pieces of the wood shim used in carpentry, then wedged them between top of baffle board and the metal chassis above it. It's not perfect but fine for my home use. I think part of the buzz is/was...

My LSS has not been modded. Controls on the LSS:Ch 1: Gain: 12, Treble: 12, Mid:9, Bass:12, Presence 10:30, Master: 12. Drive switch engaged, Thick set to normal. Channel 2: Drive: 10, Gain: 12, Treble: 1:30, Mid: 11, Bass: 11, Presence: 10, Master: 9:30. PRRI has been modded. Celestion G10...

I fixed the rattle via wedging wooden shim between the chassis and baffle board and re-seating the speaker. The PRRI is nice - like much there's individual taste but I think it is a wonderful sounding clean amp and my PRS Hollow Body sounds better with it than any amp I've tried. I did more...
