No, that's a slightly more powerful fuse in the .50 Caliber (2.5 amp), so that's got to be a different cap as well. Wish somebody out there could come up with something!

Let me make sure I'm explaining properly. The Maverick has always worked great. I must have done something when moving it that caused the fuse cap and fuse to fall out (and I probably threw it out, thinking it was junk). Bizarre, but I guess a ghost did it... So now I have purchased a new...

Hello Everyone, Recently, I had to clear out a room that had my two Boogies in it, and when I hooked everything back up again, I realized that somehow, the fuse cap and fuse had fallen out of my Maverick 1X12, and had been thrown out! I bought a fuse cap and the correct fuses, and went to put...

Hello All, I've got an original EL-84 .50 Caliber that was equipped with the Boogie 200-watt EV 12" speaker at the time it was purchased. Is there such a thing as the speaker "going bad", losing sound quality in some way, or just kind of dying out? The amp is 25 years old, after all. Nothing...

MB Junkie The tech I took it to is in the New Orleans area - if you live near there, I can tell you who it is to avoid. Yeah, 5 weeks was bad for very minor work - not to mention the bonus gift with a stench. Luckily, I think it's pretty much gone at this point. But I'm currently dealing...

Howdy All, If anyone out there uses a Stratocaster Elite with their Boogie, I'd love to hear how people cope with the noise/hum that only this guitar can create. It's a great instrument, but the hum/noise is such an annoying hindrance. It's not as bad when using my Maverick, but when using my...

Honestly, the main thing is to make sure your guitar is tuned down half a step. Sounds silly, but you'd be surprised...

Has anyone here sent their pedals to Mr. Neely for repairs? I've never experienced such an extraordinarily small amount of communication from someone in the repair business. Never lets you know anything, pretty much. He is taking an agonizingly long time, so I'm just curious if anyone can...

I'm just curious - can you give me an example of the value of a typical original C+, as opposed to a Mark II C that was upgraded to a C+ a few years ago? Can you send Mesa a Mark II B and have it modified to a C+? Seems a little strange that there would be a large difference in price if the...

I suppose I'm blessed that the amp doesn't have this smell. A long time ago, I pulled into a parking lot and almost ran over a skunk. He let my nostrils know exactly how he felt - every time I drove my car for about the next month. I still remember having to throw out a new jacket that was...

I put some Turtle Wax interior car stuff on it last night, but I can try Baby Wipes if y'all think that'll work better. I've had baking soda in a coffee cup placed inside the amp (next to speaker) for a week now, but it looks like I need to find something to enclose the amp!

Yeah, the cats would do it, but I'm allergic! Disgusting, I know. Too bad I can't show you what the dude looks like!

Howdy All, Recently, my .50 Caliber was left with an amp tech for about 5 weeks' time. I knew the tech's house/office was absolutely digsusting, but I didn't think I'd be bringing the **** smell home with the amp! It's so strong that it seems to be filling the small room it occupies. It's...

The original Studio 22 was powered by EL-84 tubes, but the Plus model was not!
