1) Why does it only have 1 rectifier tube to handle 4 output tubes? Or if you prefer, why do Dual Recs, Roadsters, etc. have 2 rectifier tubes to handle 4 output tubes? I thought the norm was 1 rectifier tube for 1 or 2 output tubes, 2 rectifier tubes for 4 output tubes, & 3 rectifier tubes for 6 output tubes.
2) I'm a bit confused about why my Roadster has a gain and master volume but no volume, why the Heartbreaker has volume and master but no gain, and why my former Mesa Studio Preamp had volume, gain, and master.
I would ask Monsta-tone since it's his Heartbreaker I am purchasing in a few weeks. I certainly welcome a reply from him, but I know that he is quite busy as well! So any insight would be welcome.
I'm having some problems containing my enthusiasm as Monsta-tone is also installing a reverb bypass and effects loop bypass. I love the Roadster, but I'm just having too many problems getting a satisfactory lead tone. Perhaps I was spoiled by the Studio Pre's lead tone?
