    RK 2 vs. Roadster preamp differences

    What are the diffs b/n RK2 and roadster in terms of the preamp? I think I read that the RK 2 had an upgraded ch1 (cleans) and brit on ch2. Is this true as well for Roadsters and since when? Is there a version 2 for Roadsters?

    Why does Steve hate Mesa Boogie amps?

    So I took my switchblade to Steve in Burbank (roc n roll doctor). He has toured with Aerosmith as amp tech for 2 yrs in the past! This guy knows his tubes and amps, etc. He hates Mesa amps. The cold biasing, etc. He says, "just take it to Mesa hollywood for servicing". He called my H&K...

    Mark V vs. Stiletto Deuce II

    so i ran both these heads into my Gflex 212 last night at the studio. definitely the mark V clean is much better. definitely the mark V ch 2 and ch 3 is much stiffer/tighter. i'm thinking that the stiletto suits my style more and I may end up selling the mark 5 in the future. i don't like...

    volume drop when running G Major in efx loop

    I've noticed that even with the send/return on my G Major unit near maxed out (both around 3pm), the volume is lower generally speaking with fx loop engaged than w/ efx loop bypassed. There is some "coloring" of the signal/tone in a degrading way at loud volumes. How many of you M5 owners...

    registering warranty for used Mesa amp

    just registered my used Mark V with one of the service guys (Marcus) @ Petaluma yesterday. You just need the serial # if you don't have original receipt, etc. Found out I'm likely at least the 3rd own (still in close to mint condition). another reason Mesa is a great company to deal with.

    Pickups for the Mark V

    I'm wondering if the Burstbucker Pro pups in my Elitist LP are a good fit or not for the M5. They're passive and somewhat "roundish" sounded, not jarring/crunchy like a Super Distortion I had once. how bout a 7 string with EMG's? and using a 7 string with the Stiletto would obviously add low...

    Preset contour knobs

    there are three preset knobs (one for each channel). I wasn't able to detect what the difference is when that is engaged and you turn the knob. so is that basically simulating the V curve in GEQ and when you turn the knob it's re-shaping the curve? thx.

    G Major with Mark V

    anybody running a TC electronic g major into the efx loop of the mark v? I typically use preset #27 (wide chorus) but I find it convenient to have a rack efx box (easier and less cabling, etc.) i've noticed on some amps with that box, the levels are completely different (e.g. my VM2266 had a...
