    Holy Cow, what did I just do!!

    Okay, got it. I guess the R2 mod, replacing the MV pot and basic servicing will be it. Thanks guys.

    Holy Cow, what did I just do!!

    Come on, don't be evil! Is the III+ a mod to IIc+ specs? And I thought that Mesa doesn't do those mods anymore? And is it worth it, would it really be a c+?

    Holy Cow, what did I just do!!

    Good, I feel better now! It was a GC deal, they had just brought it in and it was marked $799. I called them up and told them I wasn't going to pay shipping or tax and they said, "Okay, no problem"!! You can still haggle prices with them. So, if I think I'm right, the R2 volume mod is so I can...

    Holy Cow, what did I just do!!

    So, I was exposed to a Mark IIc+ last week and I have been dreaming about Mesa ever since (die hard Marshall guy here). I found a couple of IIc+'s but I just don't want to spend the money. I decided to hunt down a Mk III red stripe and I just bought it and need to know if I did good. It's a...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    Maybe I should just grab a Mark III red stripe, I have a line on one with all the options and the original speaker for $799.

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    So, I am scarred to lay down that kind of dough. The guy called today and I told him that without the reverb, eq and the pedal that $1800 + $72 shipping was too much and he just said, "Good day" and hung up! I guess if I still want it he'll sell it to me, maybe I should see what happens in a...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    It's still alot of money and as I said, I could get an early 70's SL and it will only continue to increase in price and the following is probably 50 to 1 with Marshall (no put down). If you don't mind, what did you pay for yours? And what are they exactly?

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    The one I am looking to buy has the original Black Shadow (I think that's what they are called) and the one I played had the same. I have looked all over online and ebay's ended auctions and it seems that the c+'s get thousands of dollars (at least that is asking price)! Is $1800 really that...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    I was with George Lynch's tech, Gerry and he told me to check it out. So, I spent about 25 minutes with it and I quickly realized that it was great and that I could spend days messing around with it and not come close to milking all of the tone out of it. What other Mark would get me the...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    Hey Scott, thanks for all of the help. I'm a older dude, so I'm playing Zep, Priest, 80's Hair Metal, mostly Marshall kind of stuff. I have some great amps, 72 Super Lead, 2 JCM800's, a 900, BF Fender Princeton Reverb, SF Champ. So I have a lot of ground covered, but I like what I heard from...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    So, how far apart is the circuit in the c+ from the IV? And if I understand Mesa lore, after the c+ the IV is the next grail, if so which years or markings or whatever should one look for? What would be a fair price for the c+ I described? The thing I found to be so amazing about the c+ was how...

    Mesa Tubes...

    Should I put them into my 72 Super Lead or one of my JCM800's? I believe Siemens were stock in the 800's back then.

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    It has four power tubes and he says it's a 60/100. Would the third toggle on the front (I think on a eq amp it would be the toggle that puts the eq into the circuit) be the power cut switch? I used the fact that it didn't have the eq, pedal or reverb as a haggle point, but he told me not to buy...

    Mark IIc+ questions...

    Hi, new guy here! I have been offered an original IIc+ combo for $1800 plus shipping. It's blonde, a snag in the grill cover, tolex is aged with a few small tears, s/n 128xx and it doesn't have reverb or eq, as far as I can tell it is completely stock with the exception of a resistor and cap or...

    Mesa Tubes...

    Hi, new guy here! I just picked up a couple of boxes of Mesa EL34 STR 450 for real cheap. I believe that they are supposed to be NOS Siemens. Anyone have experience with them and what did you think?
