I recently picked up a mesa mark iv with no case. The amp came from a combo,its the 17inch wide version A. I build a head shell for it,but there is no way i can fit the GIANT reverb tank i got with the mark iv in the head with the fan. My question is,i have a smaller reverb tank from a fender...

Well im going to part with my 1995 markiii green stripe head serial number 28127. It is in excellent condition,100% functional. The only 2 flaws are a missing cap on one of the graphic eq sliders,and the presence knob is BARELY noisy when you turn it.It has the reverb mod and the initials MB. It...

Funny i have #28127 and you had #28176 pretty close.

Amp was made in 7/95 just opened it up and checked it out. I also have 2 original footswitches the lead/rythym switch and the rythym 1/2 switch. Is it possible that it has just been meticulously taken care of?

Well after doing a few gigs i think i prefer my 5150 to my markiii. It is a green stripe from the 90's serial number 21817 There is a green stripe just about the power cord,and a large black capital R under the power cord. Theres also a red mark to the left of the R wich looks like "NB" or...

markiii green stripe heres my settings at practice. Volume(sensitivity)6-8 treble 9 pulled Mid 5 not pulled bass 2 not pulled master 3ish lead drive 7ish lead master 4-5 Seems like no matter where i put the volume sensitivity theres always a little fuzziness with the clean channel. Even when i...

Hate was probably to strong of a word to use,the emgs dont sound bad,it seems like this dimarzio i have in my 7 string just sounds killer,i need to find out what model it is. Well i have figured out i like the way the emgs sound when im running just the el34's in the markiii,but i like th...

I have used emg 81's since 1999,and i prefer the 81 with the 5150/and single rec we have. But i noticed With my mark iii and my 50 caliber they sound thin and a little lifeless,they are very metallic and abrasive but it seems to smother the tone. Same with jcm900 cabs with g12 75's,I like the...

That eurotubes package looks great thanks for the info The seller of this amp made it sound like i have to perform surgery on the amp to run anything but mesa tubes.

Can i run jj powertubes without damaging my amp? The guy i bought the amp from said i can only run mesa tubes without modifying the amp bias. I know its fixed bias but we have an old fixed bias 5150,and an older fixed bias single rec,and we have retubed both amps with jj's and have had no...

At first i thought the 50 cal+ sounded a little funny. Its a rack mount 50 cal. We tried it through a marshall 1960b,through a 5150 cab, an old peavey sheffield cab,and an orange 4x12,and it just sounded funny,like it was "almost" there. When we plugged up the horizontal mesa 2x12 it was like...

Went to look at a 50cal+ for sale,and the guy also had a green stripe markiii and a horizontal 2x12 mesa boogie speaker cab with v30's for sale. I got all three for 900 bucks. I didnt even know he had the other stuff just went to see the 50 cal. When i saw his other gear and the price i said...

oops just realized theres a whole section for calibers,my bad

Been a while since i have been on here,just got a good deal on a 6l6 50 caliber and a mesa vertical 2x12 My question is,besides putting new tubes in,what can i do to freshen up the amp. I have read that replacing the caps is a good thing. I would like to take it to the shop and tell them to...

Hello im new here found this site searching on the web. I just got my 50 caliber yesterday. It has a vintage black shadow 50w vs12 speaker,from researching it looks like eminence made the speaker. Im pretty sure the speaker is a little worn out,at higher master volume levels,where the...
