So I own a Road King II and really couldn't be much happier with it. As advertised, it can pretty much cover anything you want it to. I've read a ton about the amp over the years, but it seems to me that despite being toted as being one of the best amps ever made and having universally glowing...

Alright so, I got this fixed, hope this post offers some sort of insight for you too Coleo. You mentioned that it came back to life when you connected a cable from the send to the return. I'd already tried that, tone, volume, and dynamics were terrible with a cable in the loop or nothing in the...

Tried switching out the preamp tubes in pairs with the 2 new ones that I bought today. No luck. At one point, I replaced V4 and V5, and experienced even worse problems, the amp had barely any output, even when the loop was bypassed. The problem remained that way when subbing out V3/V4, V2/V3...

Having an identical problem to OP with a Road King v2 that started last night. Sounded fine earlier this week, turned it on last night having changed nothing, all of a sudden everything sounds super weak when the effects loop is engaged. Volumes are drastically lower and gain sounds thin...

Thanks Dom, you put my fears to rest. All along I suspected it was the reverb tank, but never having owned an amp with one I could never be sure. Piggy, I have no problems with any tone coming through the speakers, it's purely a hardware thing. Now that I know it has *multiple* springs in there...

Hey all, first post here. I've had my Road King II head for almost a year, got it custom ordered brand new last May. Ever since day one, it's been making a strange sound. Everything about the tone and quality and reliability has been great, no issues. However, right off the bat I noticed that it...
