Hi folks, I can't tell if I am being a total tool... or I have something seriously wrong. Whenever I stick ANY effects in the loop of my Mark VII or Roadster, it sounds terrible. I have used Mesa Loops in the past but to be frank, not for about 10 years. I have been using Diezels and the effect...

Hey there. So here is my deal... boogie GAS hit me hard. I am a Diezel guy but have had Boogies on and off my whole life. Just got a Mark VII and really liking it. So I was using a Diezel rear loaded 4x12 with V30's and wow... just not feeling it with the Diezel VHX or Mark VII. I got a brand...

So bare with me here. I used to own some Recto's in the late 90's. First one was a Rectoverb. Then in the 2000's I mained a Diezel Vh4 and then for about 10 years a mained a Mesa Mark V. Recently I got a new Vh4 and also a brand new 50th Anniversary Dual Rectifier. Love my Vh4 but it's in the...

Hey everyone, long time no post. I just picked up a 50th Anniversary Dual Rectifier. I normally play a Diezel VH4 but was missing those old tones I loved back in the day and wow does this amp have it. I am having issues with the FX loop, Loop Level knob and also output knob. The manual really...

Hey guys I pulled put the power tubes and rectifier tube as I was checking things. When I popped them back in and turned it on it blew a fuse. I checked them all and re fit them again. I changed fuses and it blew again but when it did it looked like the rectifier tube was having lightening going...

Hi everyone, I have it on eBay. Not sure what I want and can get for it. PM me if interested. Works and is perfect. Just want some more guitars and I am still madly in love with my Mark V. :) check my feedback and if you need more pix or information let me know. Thanks...

Hey there. So I seriously have notice a change in tone/volume when I kick on the FX loop. I don;t leave it on all the time and tap dance pedals as I had specific combinations of things I like, so regardless if anything is running in the loop the tone/volume drops a bit. think it may be the...

Hey all, I got my replacement head shell today. Any advice on making the change. No instructions were provided and I am semi-handy lol, so just looking for any tips or advice on changing the head shell. My old one has a big crack on the top from diving off a 4x12 before a gig. Thanks in advance!

So weird, Mark V worked fine last night into my Diesel 4x12 and now it is doing something weird.\ I get almost no volume on all three channels. I raise and raise the master and some sound comes out but very thin and not very audible. However.......When I flick the on/off switch to...

I really wish Mesa would develop the technology (kinda like Bugera even though the amps are not great) to light a LED or something when a tube is bad. I have my snarling feedback on channel 3 again when with my band again and you need to be a surgeon to get into those preamp tubes. **** sorry...

Hey guys. I have a Roadster 2X12 cab from a while back where I converted it to stereo with a after market back plate/ Over time I took out one of the speakers. I plan to put a new speaker and return it back to normal. Any idea where I can get a standard back plate to connect the speakers to...

Curious what improvements did they do to the series II Road King? Are the waste and I assume the roadster would be better? Some RK series I heads on eBay are not that bad in price. (Considering everyone seems to love Roadsters everywhere I look.) Thanks! :)

Hey guys, I am going to buy a shell for my Mark V as you may know it took a side dive off a 4X12 cabinet right before a gig. Luckily it played no problems. I got a response from Boogie and going to talk after the new year. Debating getting a custom one like on their site just afraid I am...

Hey everyone. Just got a jc 120 combo used and it sounds killer. Just the reverb does not come on at all. Anyone know where I need to look or how to trouble shoot this? I am praying I don't have to call Roland for a repair estamit. Thanks!

Hey everyone. Curious if any one has used a multi band Eq pedal in front of their rectos or in the loop? Curious if it will be helpful in tone shaping ala the Mark graphic eq's? Thanks!

Hey everyone. Still on a quest to get a good rhythm chug tone or lead tone with channel 2 and never have any luck. Not with a OD pedal in the front either. I have my main rythm dialed in on channel 3 using Extreme mode. Love it. So loud and thumps. Not as gainy either so I play a little harder...

Hey everyone. Do they make after market foot switches for the Mark V or Recto? Can't find any. I ask as I am building a pedal board and would like to include my head switch but the Mesa ones are so big and bulky. Would like a smaller one if possible. Thanks!

Hey guys, I am going to start making gear vids again (My old channel was sean106alcon if you have seen my old ones). My new vid I think I nailed the Mark V mode real nice in this clip. I normally use Mark IV mode but recently love the chug of Mark V mode. Cheers...

Did a search but could not find an answer so any help or explanation would be great. I am in my ever ending quest for a pristine clean tone with my V and Dual (2012 Recto). I find that I have to lower the FX loop level on the back in order to get the best clean tone. (Whether or not I am using...
