Hey guys, as some of you all may know from my other thread I recently accquired a 2001 (i believe) Mesa Tremoverb head. Sounds really nice and smooth and not as thrashy sounding as the rest of the rectifier series amps to my ear yet I still love that thrash :lol: . Either way, I'm running it...

hey guys, I was wondering if it was possible to run a dual rectifier or a tremoverb with no actual rectifier tubes if you don't use the rectifier setting and you always use silicon diodes.

Im doing a complete retube on my Roadster head pretty soon and was wondering what kind of preamp tubes you fellow roadster owners are running in your amp right now. Im going with a Tung-Sol for the V1 position as I've read really good things about it in this postion here on the forum. Iwas...

Whats up guys, Im having a problem with my fx loop on my roadster head. Im running a Fulltone Choralflange, MXR Carbon Copy and TC Electronic Nova Delay in the fx loop of my Roadster head. I mainly use the delays just for solo work on channels 3 and 4 that I switch in and out wit the amp...

Whats up guys, I was wondering if any you Roadster owners have tried E34L tubes in the amp before? What are your thoughts or experiences as compared to 6L6 tubes in both clean and dirty tones?

what up guys, haven't been on here in quite some time.... been keeping really busy. anyway, i've been on a love/hate relationship with my dual rec for a couple of months now. whats really bothering me are the cleans or channel 1 in general. First off, i know these amps are known for not having...

If I perform the series fx loop mod on my Dual Rec will i still be able to use the solo and master functions on the amp???

Hey, guys...well I'm parting ways with my black diamond face Dual Rectifier. I've had her for quite sometime and she works flawlessly, I'm just moving in a different direction in my playing style and I need an amp with a really powerful, pristine clean tone. I'm gonna try and go for a Lonestar...

hey guys, i was just wondering what EL34 tube do you guys think is most balanced soundung between clean and gain? Particularly in a Dual Rectifier head. I really like the character of an EL34 tube as opposed to a 6L6 but, i've been using E34LS from Groove Tubes in my amp lately and I think its...

ok, I have my Mesa 4x12 cab that i want to run with my DR and MkIV simultaneously through it with an ab box. How would i do this??? Do the 4ohm inputs on the back of the cab for stereo operation operate all 4 speakers or just a pair per input??? Or could i but a Y adaptor, plug it into the 8ohm...

Hey guys, I recently became the proud new owner of a 91' Mark IVA rackmount amp. I couldn't pass up the deal I was getting on it so I took the plunge and I'm really happy that I did. I just bought a headcase for it from forum member gts, which shuld be here early next week. Anyway.... my...

Hey guys... im kind of in experimenting mode at the moment with my current rig. I'm running a pair of Vintage 30's and a pair of Greenbacks in my Mesa 4x12 cab right now. While I really like the tones of CH.2 and CH.3 through the cab, my clean tone is suffering a bit. The Greenbacks just breakup...

Whats up guys? I was able to score a MINT CONDITION 4x12 Rectifier cab today for $499. I love my 2x12 recto cab but I couldn't pass up the oportunity and the PRICE!!!!!! They told me at the store it was a traditional cab, which is what I was looking for. All the while I was driving home with it...

hey guys, on my dual recto im running the master on Ch.1 at about 3 O'Clock and the gain at 11:30 or so with the FX loop engaged and the over all master at about 11 or 12. Now my question is, would it be better for the channel volume to be lower and the over all master to be higher or would it...

I'm trying out my friends 2x12 roadster combo as Im intersted in buying it. I noticed that CH.3 and 4 have a very boomy bass response compared to my DR. I was using CH.4 in modern mode and i had to turn the bass knob all the way down to zero and the boom is still there. SO, I thought maybe if i...

Hey guys, im going to change the tubes in my DR head with either 6L6S Groove Tubes, 6L6GE Grove Tubes or E34L Groove Tubes. Im looking for a tube that will enhance the clean channel on my head as far as headroom (more) and clarity. However, I don't want to sacrifice any of the MESA drive...

The amp is in MINT condition and it comes with the footswitch of course. 1800 is his going price, if anybody is interested leave a reply here and if you want pics leave your email...

Hey guys, the band im playing in recently got some gigs lined up at a local hotspot but, the area for the band to setup is ridiculously small. I was thinking of just taking the amps and running them with a direct box but, i'm not to familiar with which direct boxes are good. i'll post some links...

is it safe to run my Recto 2x12 cab which is wired at 8ohms and a Marshall 2x12 cab with Greenbacks wired at 4ohms at the same time????
