    HELP! Can't secure Road King II chassis to head shell!!!

    I did some tube experimentation on my Mesa Road King II & took the chassis out to make it easier. Ir has two screws on each side of the bottom, tied together with chrome "straps". I have got the back screws on each side through the nuts that are secured to the chassis, but the screws on the...

    Road King II W/ Recto 4x12 speaker suggestions.

    Right now I'm running it through the stock 4 - Vintage 30s, but feel like I'm missing something tone-wise. In retrospect, I probably should have gotten the RK split cab. Anyway, I do have 2 brand new Warehouse Speakers BL80(Classic Lead clones). Has anyone here tried this 2+2 combination or CL80...

    Preamp tube suggestions for RKII V2 running 4-6L6 & 2- EL84

    I like my tones now, but have several different 12AX7 & 5751s, including some older Mullard, RCA, Phillips, JAN etc. & think I might get some even nicer tones. If you have any suggestions, if only as a starting point, I’d appreciate you sharing them. I have a tendency toward a nice bright bite...

    Road King II effects loop sounds distorted

    ...& I don't mean harmonic distortion, but a ratty, ragged, ugly distortion that sounds kind of "on top" of the clean tone. I know I'm going to have to check & contact clean all my pedalboard connections, but thought I'd see if there is an amp issue that you guys know about. I have checked &...

    For Sale - Custom Made Diamond Plate Pedalboard

    I had this made to match, when I had my Rectifier. It's just more than I need, or ever needed actually. It measures 40" X 16" & is "about" 3" in back & slopes to about an inch high in front. it has small pads in the bottom edges for grip. It's REALLY heavy duty, but only weighs about 9-1/2...

    FS - Road King II Tan Jute Front panel

    This panel was on my RK II, but I switched to a red one. Mesa charges $169 for a new one with this grill material, so I figure half that is fair, so my price is $90 SHIPPED & PAYPAL(if desired), again, about half what it would cost you from Mesa. Payment by Paypal or Postal money Order only. It...

    Why no Road King sub-forum?

    C'mon, there's one for the Mark 5? How many people, if any, even have a Mark 5? There are a few Kings out there! Tony

    Noise when putting pedals in front of 3 channel DR?

    Anyone else have this issue or have a solution? The other guitarist I play with is having a noise issue when putting ANY pedal in front of his DR. We've tried different cords, pedals, in short, all substitutions, with no success. With just a cord it's dead quiet, but with any pedal or...

    +1 on the manual. I read mine 3 times after I downloaded off the Mesa site, before I took delivery. Congrats on a tone machine! Tony

    Loop #1 wouldn't work on my RKII

    So, after changing cables etc., I switched it to "loop bypass" & back & now it works. Should I be concerned about this? Harbinger of problems yet to come, or just a fluke? I know it's minor, but I just want to be sure. Thanks, Tony

    Why is impedence mismatch necesary in RKII?

    When using a dual cab setup? Couldn't they have engineered an auto-switch for impedence, when using two cabs. You always have a mismatch when using individual cabs in order to prevent a dangerous mismatch when using both. This was my ONLY disappointment with my RKII. I figured you techies could...
