and another IIB 12/29/81 sn838x RP9B HRG Silver knobs

Yeah my initial email was with a picture of the caps as I assumed these were still problematic. His response to the image was, “Those would be the caps with the "IC" for illinois capacitor label... I have not seen any particular troubles with them. The definite problem ones were labeled...

My Mark III green stripe is currently with MB getting the ++ mod, price was $400 not including shipping. I also have a IVB, III red stripe, and IIB+. I asked MB yesterday if they could look up service history by the serial and this was his response, “No way look back thru all the various RA...

There’s a IIB Mike B loop modded 100/60 with GEQ in the SF bay area I’m looking at as well. Prices definitely aren’t what they used to be. GC also has a Mark III no stripe with what appears to be the 105 transformer, but with no GEQ.

Thank you for all your info. I didn’t realize your channel was Tighten, I’ve binged so many of your videos. I’m actually looking to pick up a IIB(+) as well. Your videos are killer!

Friendly little bump! My amp is with Mike B now, although he said 6-8 week turnaround so plenty of time to wait. Anyone else with experience here who can give their opinions? I was lucky enough to play my green next to a IIC+ and while I love the III, the IIC+ was different enough and also...

Hello, I’m talking with Mike B about sending my green stripe to get the + mod. He suggested to go straight for the switchable ++ instead. I’ve read about all I can for the + mod, but the ++ inspired by the C++ I’m less familiar with. I understand it’s a gain boost, switchable from the R2 pot...

I actually don't even own one yet but I have about $700, I get paid $450 next week and there's a blue stripe by me for $950 and one on HC for ??? I just am looking for mods to better the tone, tighten it up or anything that will make the amp better. And for a bias mod, does that just set the...

Do you have any mods for a Mark III other than the Channel 2 volume mod? Anything that affects tone or playability? Also where are you located? And, any mods for a triple rectifier? My friend has a B-52, I don't know how similar the insides are.

Ok, thanks. I'm not too familiar with the DC models.

Sorry I thought I quoted the guy selling the mark III. I'm interested in that. And yes, I have seen a mark IV without EQ. Battle of the Bands at the orbit room on Feb 9 this year. Some guy in a death metal band had one. Sounded like crap, not the amp just him playing through it.

how much? Does it have EQ and simul class? Those are a must.

I'm in Grand Rapids but I really want a Mark III!!!!

Thanks but that didn't really help. I've been there many times and all it talks about is the creation of the Mark III. Thanks though

thanks, how'd you do that?

Sorry guys. It posted itself 4 times and I can't delete it. Everytime I try to it tells me "invalid session, please resubmit the form". I've tried about 50 times already and it doesn't work. I'll keep trying but sorry for it.

So I was at my friends house the other day and he had a poster of the Chili peppers from way back in the day. I do believe it was Hillel Slovak (early guitarist died in '88 ) in the picture but to my surprise I saw the words Mesa Boogie in the distance on their stage. I looked closely and...

Yeah, I've always heard of MetallicA slaving the IIC+ to a JCM800 but according to the Legendary Flemming Rasmussen they only did that for the Mater of Puppets song, not the whole album. I'm trying as hard as I can to get the new Randy Rhoads Marshall, then I'll be in the market for a Mark III...

Ok, thanks guys. Now does anyone want to sell me one? Has to have EQ, presence, and simul-class and can only be a red or green stripe. :D Just kidding guys, I'm just messing around. :D

Well I've heard that the black has a more aggressive fuzzy distortion, the red has a tighter smooth heavy distortion, and the green has better cleans. So really can any stripe sound just like another with settings and different tubes? I have MetallicA's actual settings from MOP for their IIC+...
