I recently found a rectifier 212 (2FB) cabinet at a great price locally. The guy sent me a picture of the speakers, but they are definitely Chinese version vintage 30s. Don’t all the Mesa boogie cabinets have the UK vintage 30?

https://www.flickr.com/gp/26666571@N03/f5CkZ5 The top is the red channel and the bottom is the orange. First off, the pot ohm specs were reversed (red was 100k, orange was 25k) but even after buying replacement parts from Mesa my Orange channel presence doesn’t seem to have any effect on the...

I found a Mark III that I am considering buying. It has Mesa Boogie LTd in the back and Mesa Boogie Mark III on the front under the power/standby switches. This leads me to believe it is a very early amp but the seller swears it has a faint red marker line over the power cable. Also, it is...

As title states. Looking for a Mark III or IV under $900. I am in NC.

When I tried it this amp I loved the clean but wasn’t too sure about the lead channel. It has enough gain, but seemed a lot “looser” than I wanted. I would call it a mudiness that I cannot dial out. Using a SD1 in front of the amp brightens it up, but I want that bright/tight feel on the...

I had been on the lookout for a early Dual Rec at the usual sites and noticed one with small logo and attached powercord at a Guitar Center in the used site. I called and talked to them about it. Decent condition (some tolex scrapes and dust, plus mismatched tubes) but otherwise worked and...

As the title states...I have had a bunch of different Mesa's over the years. I've had Caliber/DC/Rectos and a Mark V:25. The only one that stuck was the Mark V:25, but only because I liked the Clean/Fat/Crunch and Mk2c+ settings. I never used Mark 4 or "Extreme". I am now back in the market...

I just bought a .50 Caliber combo. It appears to be from the mid 80's. The previous owner told me the reverb worked but was just weak. I don't think so. If I turn the reverb to 10 I hear a little static/noise, but no reverb at all. I changed the tube and verified very low ohm rating from in...
