Just picked up my first Tube Amp - a MESA Boogie Express 5:50 for $450!
Great tone, perfect cosmetic condition, but the reverb circuit is not working... I checked all the connections, and tried both channels. I tested the reverb tank and it looks good (Black = 250 ohms, White = 1.2 ohms). I rolled the tubes (no problem with #5). Soooo.... it looks like it must be the FETs on the mute circuit. If anyone has a schematic, or experience please send!
