I had this problem with a brand new Mesa 4x12. I took it back, and they told me the baffle was loose. They fixed the problem in a very short time. 10 years later, and it's still a champ!

Both......I keep my rack gear stuff in parallel to avoid the ad/da conversion, and try to use mostly analog pedals. All within a switcher. In my opinion, flangers, phasers, and compression sound better in pedals. To use these with the G-Major you have to be in series, therefore going the...

Very nice! Any Eqing, or just plain old Triaxis sweetness?

Plug your guitar straight into the 2:90, change the back from Line to Instrument. See how it sounds.

Is this the tone you're looking for? Skip ahead to about 2:53ish http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGvdh9P419A

Would there be exceptions when recording spots in a song where it is just guitar? Have a monstrous guitar sound, but then when the rest of the band enters, use some automation on EQ's, no deep engaged, etc...?

I put a sticker(label) on my 2:90 dating when I last retubed it. It reads 7/9/07. So, these tubes are now 4 years old, and have a nice layer of dust sitting on them. This amp has been through a lot of practices, shows, and miles of bumping roads. They still seem fine to me....Deep, Modern...

Post your actual settings....

In my opinion, the Triaxis can't do Killswitch Engage type stuff. My band plays "End of Heartache" and I can't get that tone. As good as the Triaxis is, I think it needs to be blended with another amp.....like Hetfield does.

When you lose your sustain....it could be many factors at play, but I can get sustain for days with a 7.0 gain setting. Either the Master isn't high enough, or the power amp isn't high enough....bedroom volumes are gonna laugh at you when sustain is needed. I understand the liquid feeling...

Elvis, what pick-ups are you using? I'm using active EMG's in all my guitars, and they are very hot pick-ups. Although, the better guitar player you become, the more you will see lowering your gain will actually make your tone better! Here's a cool article...

I agree Jackie....although I have my DV at 2.0 when using Lead 1 Red, plus a tube screamer running in front.

You should try Ld 2 Red with a DV between 3.5-4.5. Gain at 7.0-7.5, Lead 2 Drive at 6.5-7.0. Make sure the presence is low...2.0 or 3.0. Treble at 5.0-6.0. Adjust Bass to taste, I usually go as high as I can until mud is introduced, then back off....Mids around 3.5-4.0..Engage the deep on the...

I'm curious in this, as I'm close to a retube. I don't have to do any biasing? I can just throw in some EL34's???

I think there might be something wrong, because my Triaxis produces TOO MUCH low-mids. Try this setting on LD1 Red 6.0, 5.5, 7.0, 6.0, 6.0, 0.0, 5.0, 5.0, 2.0 and switch on Modern on the 2:90. There should be a lot of low-mids present here. I actually use a Tube Screamer before the Triaxis...

I put my 2290 and G-force after the pre-amp too, sounds better to my ears, plus allowed me to use the fx loop for my compressor/gate.

I have a Boss EQ in front that's slightly dipping out 200 hz ,and boosting 800 hz......This has allowed me to turn the Bass up to 6 or 7 while having the deep engaged. I also use a hi pass filter EQ after the preamp taking out 60 Hz and below. I know you should always use your ears, but...

Rule everything out and plug your guitar straight into the 2:90...switch it to guitar level obviously. How's that sound?

Great sound man! My 2:90 is in need of a retube.....Did you have Mesa put the KT88's in for you?

Here's something I've always wondered about. Since it said Unsheilded cables in the manual. I first connected them with Speaker Cables that said unshielded on them(or is all Speaker Cable unshielded)? I got the pop then, and I get the pop now with guitar shielded cables...
