Hiya, dear peeps! Haven't hung out here in a while, but figured I'd make a post here for anyone who's been salivating for one of these babies. Heart-heavy to part with this, but time has come. All original, fully loaded DRGX '84 Simul, EQ, Rev and X-101 'Export' PT. Head and speaker cabinet...

I recently did a full retube of my Lonestar Classic with new Mesa 12AX7 preamp tubes (relabeled JJs, as far as I've heard) and Mesa STR-425s (Russian 5881s). I'm not very fond of the supposed JJs, by the way. Some harshness when overdriven here and there; have that nasty clipping bite that...

The noise has been there for quite a while: intermittent, very faint (only noticeable when not playing) scratching-like/static noises. They are still there when the Output is all the way down, so it must be something after that stage. Speaker connection is good, and as far as I can remember, it...

I was just looking through the Mesa Custom Design gallery and stumbled across this little gem: Man, that's some hardwood!! :shock:

I've been thinking of getting an amp stand for my LSC 1x12" combo, as I'm starting to like the thought of elevating it a bit from the floor and for hearing myself better. So far, I've been looking at these three: - On-Stage RS7000 - On-Stage RS7705 And a more recent interesting discovery; -...

Well, I know it's an odd question, considering that obviously very few guitarists are willing to pay that much for a delay pedal, but if there's anyone on this board who has some experience with these, I'd greatly appreciate some input! Reason I'm asking is because lately I've been looking for...

I guess you should read again on the features, then:

I just recently bought a fantastic new Lonestar Classic 1x12 combo and I'm absolutely in love with it! It's really a sweet sounding amp, and I'm finally feeling that I'm close to finding -my- signature lead tone. It's also a great addition/"sort-of-contrast" to the Mark voicing I'm accustomed...

Just got the new cabinets for my IIC+ from George (gts) a couple of weeks ago, and decided to shoot a few pics today. The cabinets are really really well-made and the covering and wicker work is practically flawless. George and I worked quite hard to get all the little details just right...

Very quick question; The speaker in my IIC+ is a Black Shadow speaker labeled "Type: EVM". Is this the renowned EVM 12L speaker? That everyone says matches a Thiele perfectly?

If, so, post some pics! Just want to see different wood combos, etc. So far, my favorite is this, from Mesa/Boogies Custom Gallery;

No Mesa booth at Summer NAMM this year, I've heard. So.. no. We'll have to wait until January '09/Winter NAMM. Hopefully they'll have the new TriAxis ready by then. :wink:

I use a Planet Waves Instrument Cable. 25ft. Can't really tell much difference with shorter cables. Still sounds good to me.

Well, if anyone's got one for sale, please PM me. :D I'd really prefer one in Imbuya/Bubinga and Wicker Cane grille, but feel free to let me know of other options! :shock: And preferably in relatively good condition too. Small nicks in the wood don't bother me at all, but I'd rather not...

Does anyone know why do they say that when the coloring is really used to match with the (sometimes different) fixed bias in their amps? :? Weird. :shock:

What would be the best way to set this "theoretical" rig up considering tone when it comes to chosing power sections? Mark IV Mark IV Lonestar I'm looking for a smart way to keep the best tone from each amp as possible. It has always bothered me that when you're running a stereo rig (using two...

Ok, I've been searching around for some good tubes lately. Although I'm not to experienced with the sonic differences, etc, the important thing for me right now is to get some lower rating EL34 for my IIC+, as I've been informed that the grey labeled Mesa ones I have now may be running to hot...

Ok, so today I finally got a chance to crank up my IIC+ really loud, and after some time, I noticed that the far right EL34 was glowing red hot, (yes, only that one) and there was some humming noise coming through the speaker. I shut it off, then the fuse blew. So I changed the fuse and turned...
