Hi I thought i'd post to gather some opinions on the type of Mesa i'm trying to find that is as close as the sound i'm looking for .... I have looked at some of the old F series amps as i just fell in love with the clean tones they have, but i aren't so keen on the overdrive/crunch tones, i...

huh that's interesting for sure ... i'd have no idea at moment, but i did say i was just going to run it at 50w as 100w is just too loud for anything i need at moment ... ive got a new set of tubes with it too as well as the originals. i had no idea you could use less tubes in an amp when...

yeah the dialing in particular is what i've heard requires patience with these amps. i've always had a knack however of being able to produce great tones from amps that others seem to struggle with live etc, and the EQ in particular on my 1x12 Nomad is encouraging too. I also run my own EQ pedal...

From what i've gathered they are like a swiss army knife of amps ... impressed by the amount they have to offer. I've still not received the one i've purchased due to weather/courier issues in my country but should have my hands on it this week some time. I wondered why it's so hard trying to...

i'd prefer to run all three speakers at the same time ... just need to be sure what i need to be doing correctly in order to run my 1936 with it and not blow anything up haha!! first time i've tried an amp with an extension and aren't exactly a tech head. can't find one demo online of anyone...

nice one mate sounds nice. i think a JCM800 will be on my shopping list again one day. I just gotten rid of my 50w JCM900 and a bit sad to see the back of that. can't wait to try this Mesa though through the 75s' in the 1936 cab. even considering getting an Orange 2x12 in black as there's a...

cool mate cheers for the info ... can't wait to try it out on Tuesday i expect it'll sound awesome ... one day i'll invest in the mesa cabs as well. that's re assuring to know because i didn't like the idea of having to cancel out the speaker on the combo for me to accommodate my extension 1936...

After all that initial confusion, the bloke telling me it was a 45/55 ... turns out he's selling it for his son that's why he was getting me so confused about the amp. After mailing me the pics of it we've confirmed it is indeed the 100w 1x12 combo with the EQ patch on it ... i have gone for...

will it go well through my marshall 1936 then?? i think i've struck a bit of a bargain for it actually!! EDIT - Please refer to new thread about the 100w Nomad :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

http://postimage.org/image/ux60qny0j/] http://postimage.org/image/iwkkpxqlv/ http://postimage.org/image/c7e19x59v/ here is the amp ... it's the 100w 1x12 isn't it?!?! this guy is a confused chap i think ... he told me its 45,55 now these pics suggest its a 100w???

just bought this and cleared it up, it is indeed a Nomad 45 ... so the EL84s will be fine .. i heard that i don't need to get them biased as there's a switch mode at the back which allows me to just run it on the EL84 tubes and slotting them in myself should be ok?? he's mailing me the combo...

i would have to double check that, i never asked what the speakers were as i just bought the 1936 cab brand new when my mate's guitar shop were getting rid of it for dirt cheap so snapped it up when i bought the JCM900 head i used with it :roll:

ahhhh i just found out what the yellow jackets are ... they permit the use of the 84s in place of any other valves in the amp ... they seem to cost a bit of a bomb though , they aren't just one for each valve are they?!

i wonder if he has got the type of the tubes named wrong then?? I'm sure the ones he's got are actually in Mesa Boogie little boxes as well .... strange!! will have to double check this with him before i take it off him :roll: p.s when you say aftermarket parts, do you mean valves that aren't...

also can someone link me the "Mud Mod" thread as i just searched it but had no luck finding it ... i'm usually pretty good at making amps sound even better and tinkering with them .... i use plenty of different EQ units too so no doubt they'll come in handy with the Nomad :)

Hi Recluse ... hmmm that's interesting, i'm sure it is a 55 that he is selling me. I did a look up on it just then google and seem to have found a few bits of info about 55s with EL84s in them ... i think he has already got the tubes in the amp he has been using and the EL84s are a brand new set...

thanks very much for the reply ... i would understand if they are what were the next step up from the F series amps. I know a few people who still use the F series ones just purely because the cleans are so brilliant on them and just use their own dirty stompboxes for any dirty sounds etc, this...

Hi all I have been on the look out for a good versatile combo for a long time, and i am on the verge of buying a Nomad 55 one speaker combo. I have heard the clean tones on them from various demos online and they sound superb, yet from what i heard on the F Series Boogies the cleans on them...

hello to all .. this is my first post on the board i am on the lookout for a new rig at present, and my head has been turned by a guy i know who has offered to sell me his Mesa F100 head. i have never owned a Mesa before, but must admit that when hearing this amp being played clean and with a...
