    I am assuming you found one. But I just logged in to look into selling or trading mine.

    Mark V Crunch tones on Roadster? Fat mode the same on both?

    Hi, I hope I am not double posting, I posted and then couldn't find what I wrote on the boards. I'll make this one shorter. My amp is damaged and needs repairs. I just joined a new band and I have some gigs coming up, thinking of finally pulling the trigger and replacing my F100, which I...

    The next Mark - what would we need?

    I am late to this game but sounds like fun to play. Since we are dreaming I am going to go for pie in the sky version of Mark VI. 1) I would like to see the next mark series have push/pull knobs and switches to disable features. Ideally -Presence defeat to set the tone controls like a vintage...

    F-50

    Hi, I have posted several times here about the F-Series. I have owned 2 F-100's, and an F-50 so here is my 2 cents. The good: Wonderful clean starts at that lively fender blackface vibe and then as you increase the gain it gets warmer sounding until you start getting into garage rock area...

    F series distortion tones on lunchbox head Rectoverb or Mark

    Ok so I was lucky enough that both amps ended being available to play through. You are both spot on that the F series channel 2 with contour has far more in common with the rectifier than a Mark V. Testing out the amps, if I had to choose just an amp to replace my F-100 it would be the...

    F series distortion tones on lunchbox head Rectoverb or Mark

    Cool thanks guys, I am going to check out the rectoverb 25 this weekend. I have high hopes for getting close to the sound I want, I think I had been turning the presence knob way too loud because that is what sounded good to my teenage ears in the 1990's when I bought my first DC-5 and...

    F series distortion tones on lunchbox head Rectoverb or Mark

    Hey guys, I post here occasionally and have always received great advice, so thank you in advance! Last time I posted I bought a 395 and Triaxis for a bargain and ended up selling the triaxis before I got to play it for real, and ended up with a free 395 power amp so not a bad deal on my end...

    Which to keep Triaxis or F-100

    Hi, I have a F-100 that has always given me trouble, and I have posted here before about it. I have owned several F series amps and all of them have failed in some way in a live situation. I wouldn't care if they didn't sound so **** good. I got a killer deal on a triaxis with a really nice...

    How does studio Pre or Quad pre stack up against F-series?

    I just posted another question a moment ago, but I am so frustrated with guitar amps right now. basically found my holy grail high gain tone with the Mesa Boogie F-100, Gain at 100%, Volume at 70-80% , I play heavy crusty punk no downtuning, no chugga chugga palm mutes just a mix of...

    F-Series reliable for high gain?

    Hi, I love the tone of the F-series for crust punk/D-Beat. My settings are gain 100%, tone controls in the ball park of 50%, Volume 70-80%. I have had nothing but trouble with my first F-50 which shut off at random, and now my F-100 seems to be a beast that eats through tubes. I only...

    F-50 powering off

    I have had this problem a few times, when playing a gig or full volume band practice. on channel 2, with contour. Master Volume 3/4 all the way up. when the gain, goes past 12:00 the amp turns off. You have to unplug the power, unplug speaker cables and then it works for a minute or two...
