That is why el84's in the express 5.25 sound better more burn less flubb.....bwahahahahaha!

Peace............... :D

My express 5.25 has a GREAT clean channel and reverb and I am a Fenderholic. To intimate that they are not pro level amps is sheer stupidity. If the lsc sounds better to you great..............enjoy.

I don't think it is a good idea to use a fuse that is rated higher than the stock one. It won't blow as fast and might not protect the circuit properly. Mesa should be able to sell you one.

Nice language Captain Spaulding

Thank you for the advice. I guess I will order a set of el-84's from Mesa on Monday, then I have no worries. However, I have a few different 12ax7's (jj's, ge, sylvania, sovtech) that I am going to swap out at will 8) just as soom as I figure out which pre-amp tube is V1!

I have four brand new Solvtec el-84's that Carvin sent me for my V16. I understand Mesa only wants you to use their tubes. I understand they use sovtecs too. When the time comes for me to replace the two el84's in my express 5.25 can I just plug a set of these in(aside from warrenty issues) or...

The only other thing I might add to all my blathering is that this amp is very MUSICAL. I think they might just know what they are doing in Petaluma. As a side note, I know it sounds better than the 5.50 even though I have not tried that amp. This is mainly due to the fact that I probably...

Ok I lied! This is my first Mesa/Boogie so none of this may be new to most of you. I can't believe the sustain this thing has. I am talking about the clean channel here, it just goes on and on. I can also hear what my guitars/pickups actually sound like. Compared to my Fender Concert (which has...

Ok I have only played it for two hours so I am not going to pontificate on it's virtues. However, I was expecting to be disapointed with the reverb and I find it to be wonderful.( Usually only a Fender reverb will do for me.) Also it really does sound much bigger than it looks. Okay no more...

Looks just like a telefunken U47........................with leather.

Most all manufacturers continually improve their products. Usually it is best to wait a year after the release of a new amp to get one. That said I am waiting for a 5.25 right now.

5.25 GAS..............ordered 5 weeks ago.....still waiting.......... :x ......I may not make it!

My 5.25 has no hiss or any sound for that matter as I am still waiting for it.Since I am in Seattle should I just drive to Petuluma and grab one? :shock:

I ordered one about three weeks ago.patiently waiting :x but one of you should help my suffering by posting some clips damnit!

If you eat more potted meats and put mustard on your fries, you will likely get more gain from your amp.

I sure wish I could notice the cover that comes with the Express. Maybe in about a month I can tell everyone all about it. :?

Chugga...chugga chugga..........fizz. I wonder if many of these "new metal" bands shouldn't give up guitar and further mine Spinal Taps all bass Big Bottom vein. Talk about a killer dropped tunings.

I ordered an Express 5.25 2 weeks ago through Guitar Center (I know but they are the only dealer near me). Apparently they have heard nothing yet. I already paid and everything. This is my first mesa/boogie and I am wondering how long everyone else waited for theirs? Good grief!

Thanks for the link. I ordered a 5.25 last week (first boogie ever). Just dig the versatility in such a compact amp. I would have liked to hear the reverb cranked on the clean channel. Also, maybe they should have gotten the power tubes working at least a tad. Finally thanks to the guys at...
