The direct out on the MIII is really more of a "slave" out meaning it's meant to drive another power amp and speaker cab. The fizzy/buzzy sound you're hearing is really the "true" sound of the amp but what you want to hear is the sound of your amp "filtered" through a speaker cab. (The...

Ha ha! Well...The best I can say is that it just adds life to the amp. With the presence knob set low, the amp gets more rigid and stale....When you crank it up...There's more life. I should stick a scope on it and see if there's any nasties....But the amp appears to be stable and sounds...

Okay....So...With C516...I went from .005 to .001 and that was kinda alright...For giggles I popped in a 120pf. I don't think I even want to try anything else. Presence stays pretty much on 10 and just ROCKS! Another thing...I got all new electrolytics from Boogie and installed them...

Hmmm...Interesting...There's not a single brown Dale resistor in my MkIII. Good to know.

I used a SM on C27...I used a PS series Orange Drop for C30. Speakers are Scumback H and M75's. Power tubes are Boogie STR440 and 447 6L6/EL34 respectively. At first I was a little bothered by the aggression...The C30 mod was great, but I'm still missing the "air." The 2k and 6.6k sliders...

So I've been playing with my green stripe MkIII. I did the C27 and C30 mods...Already have the Reverb mod...But I was still not happy with the overall aggressiveness in the highs of the amp. The presence control was kinda unusable and spent all of it's time pretty much off. The amp seemed...

Are you sure it's totally stock? I see the Vishay/Dale style resistors in the amp. I've only been inside my own personal Mark III so I don't know...But I don't think Dale RN style resistors were regularly used on Boogies? I also note that it has the C30 cap installed which wasn't normal for...

I just did the same thing only mine is a green stripe. Congrats! Play around with it for a bit and if you feel it's "lead" sound has a bit too much high-end hash, try the C30 mod. This thread was very informative to me: http://forum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=27879 There's tons of...

Like the title says...A Green Stripe, short-body, from March of 1990. After playing through it for a few hours I felt like I had a decent handle on it. It's not quite as "chuggy" as some newer amps...But it's pretty cool. I've played through a IIc+ and thought it was pretty good...Just spent...
