    Found a 212 mesa cab that is the same size as 412, seeing if anyone has any info on this cab?

    Yes, i have one. Top is open but can be configured closed. Bottom is closed and ported. Sounds wonderful. I presently have IIb Coliseum on top. Still has stock speakers in it and they sound great. I bought it in the late 80's. It is the same as the promo ad picture from DavidMenke above.

    V:90 Resonance in 90W mode

    My Maverick does the same thing. Look at my post from last fall and no one has an explanation for it. Seems to happen with EL84 Boogies more than 6L6's. It may be a function of the pre-amp though.....interesting info and thanks for posting.

    What new Mark series contains the Mark 1

    I have a Mk 1 (A638) and a Mk V. Direct comparison is that the Mk V hits on the theme of Mk 1, but there is no real substitute for the original.

    Mark V Combo gain controls in channels 1 and 2 cause crackling/hissing noise when rotated

    I use deoxit. There are 3 grades, red, gold and green. Get it from Amazon. If you are worried about the insides, use the Green. It is safer for plastics. Just remove the knob and squirt a little bit on the shaft and work it back and forth. It helps to have the shaft vertical so it runs down...

    Boogie 2b IIB

    Security at a price....they take at least a 10% cut, so price accordingly. I sold a really nice Ludwig 70's blue/olive badge set of drums a year ago and till it was done, I lost money. Make sure you figure the shipping cost fairly to yourself also.

    Boogie 2b IIB

    Just for your information, I have K216; I believe it is a IIB, and it does not have eq or reverb. It came from Claire Bro's in Lititz PA from a tour in around '85. I don't know which one. I am presuming a lot of these were used as slaves to bump up the power on the big arena tours of the...

    Thoughts on trying the Van Halen Variac trick with a rectifier

    Just a thought. Since Power=voltage x current, then if you drop the voltage the current the amp draws is going to go up affecting all the things the transformer does and wasn't designed for. So, this is a modern amp designed for modern grid voltage. Check your AC outlets and you may be...

    Maverick 2x12 Mystery Hum...and go...

    I have a 1x12 narrow body; it does the same thing. I've had it to a Mesa certified technician in Sarasota and he says it's OK. I don't play it much because of the ghosting notes.....exactly as you described it. My question is: did you ever get it fixed and what was the fix. BTW it doesn't...

    Early Mark I unidentified pot in back right next to heat sink fins.

    What is the unidentified pot to the right of the heat sink fins. It is on no other Mark I that I have seen on the web. This thing sounds awesome.
