Hey everyone, sorry I've been out of the loop ... For starters I really applied myself to learning the amp and I think I've come a good ways. I got rid of the muddy mess I had and the highs were clearer. I found myself really enjoying the Mesa afterwards. I still wanted to experiment so I sold...

I guess I should of elaborated more but I don't really want THAT tone, hehe, it is rather iffy ... but I was referring more to the level of distortion

I'll try out the Mesa Single Rec High Gain Option with KT88's from eurotubes first ... I still wanted a new cab initially so I'll sell this one and shop around for a mesa cab. Is there a listing of Mesa techs? I live in Ripley, NY so hopefully there is one close by.

What's this loop bypass mode? I don't remember reading about it in the manual .. is it feature just on the dual and triples?

I tried the el34's as it seemed everyone suggested using them with this amp and I wanted to see what the fuss was all about but honestly I couldn't tell much of a difference to justify buying them ... I'll shop around for a cab with some vintage 30's I'm just a bit confused as to why my tone...

I'll look around for an OCD pedal and try putting that in front ... Guess I was just expecting way too much

I put a brand new set of el34 preamp tubes shortly after I got the amp. I know the cab I have is eh, but the Seventy-80's never really got bad reviews, basically from what I've read they're just average. Here's some sound clips of what it sounds like ... First one is with the same EQ settings...

Alright, I tried switching the preamp tubes ... no change I find this video to be similar to the tone I'm seeking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKM6h8iuBJg I replaced the tubes with El34 like 5 months ago as well I've tried finding the sweet spot with the master volume but when it gets to...

I take no offense, but I found a video on youtube to have some comparison to what it sounds like ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ffMgfUTSYw I have it set on modern and put the gain on 3 o'clock for my humor and it only sounds slighty more distorted than the tone in that video, only...

I'll give those settings a throw when I get home from work. I'll also take up the suggestion of the cab, I'll list this one on ebay and see about getting a 2x12 mesa. If I put a OD pedal in the set, would I put it out front or in the effects loop for best tone?

I guess I was hoping to achieve a level of gain/distortion comparable to 94 Hours by As I Lay Dying. I don't want to sound like some ravenous twit seeking out the most distortion you can dish out but that was my aim ... My settings are Output & Master are at 12, Presence 12, Bass 11, Mid 11...

My Schecter C-1 Hellraiser arrived today and was hoping it would give me what I really wanted from my Mesa, but it didn't ... I'm running the C-1 straight into a Mesa Single Rect and the cab is a Crate with Celestion Seventy 80's... I went through the works before choosing this amp but it's...
