If you have one, let me know. Thanks!

I have an ESP EX Std for sale. This is an older Japan direct order, so it comes with the gigbag and has a stamped serial instead of the USA/current printed serial number and circle stamp. They aren't available in the US very often, so grab one of these at a great price for a rare Japan ESP...

Thanks man, I'll give that a try. That seems it might get a bit bassy though. I'm using humbuckers.

Can anyone recommend me any? I'm after more of a U2-ish sort of clean tone. Thanks!

Neat. I plan to stick mine in a vanilla taurus headshell in the future - white/cream amps look really cool.

Do you mean the pot, or the knob? Looking at my DC-5 manual pdf, the part numbers are: MV knob: #409115 MV pot: #591047 By MV, you mean Output Level, right? Since that's what I'm assuming you're referring to, and not the individual Master controls for each channel.

I think mine's around 60 lb or so. I don't really have access to a weighing scale, though, so it'd be nice for someone who knows the exact weight to chime in - I wanna know too.

I run 3 Nova pedals, and all of my other pedals can run on 12V fine, so I use a Fueltank Juicy Lucy. It's excellent - isolated outs, lots of power, looks cool, sturdy, and one very important aspect over the pedal powers - it has a voltage selector for use in different countries.

Center neutral, up boost, down cut.

Gotcha, found it. Mine's 031398. Any idea what that dates it to? It's one of the later models I think, since it doesn't have channel LEDs and the EQ switch on the back is a toggle instead of rotary.

Dibs. I get frustrated with my DC-5 a lot sometimes, but the next day when I plug it in it just totally slays. It's a love-hate sort of thing. They sound KILLER when tweaked, though.

Hey, any idea where a DC-5's serial number is located? Is it inside on the circuit board or outside on the chassis? Thanks!

Ah, ****. Would it be possible if I got a new transformer, though? Or just to not have the switch at all and be able to plug in anywhere? I've been looking at some Laney amps that just have a universal output marked '110v-240V' - how do they do that?

What I'm actually looking to see if I could do would be to have a voltage switch installed so I could switch between 120/240v, since I travel around a fair bit. Any idea if this is possible? I heard Mesa used to do it on their old Mark amps.

Ah, gotcha. It says 2.5 A fuse and 120 v, so that'd be 600 watts then? That's gonna be pretty heavy.

Would the input power rating be 50 watts? So a 100 watt transformer or more would be good, then?

I'm actually wondering if doing the volume pot mod is a good idea on my Mesa, since it actually sounds pretty good at the volume knob just a hair above 1 (where it usually stays) and master levels at above 2. The post in the mod thread said that generally there'd be no output at all between 0...

If I'm using a US DC-5 in a country with 220-240v voltage (e.g: Singapore) do I just need a step-down transformer, or is there any additional stuff needed? Do I need to replace a fuse? I checked mine and it doesn't have a voltage switch or anything.
