The tubes depend on whether or not the amp is Simul-Class Simul-Class can accommodate 4-6L6's or 2-6L6's in the two inner sockets with EL34's in the outer sockets. The non Simul-Class versions run 4-6L6's You cannot run 4-EL34's in either version.

Buy them both and and swap the speakers so you have 2 EV's and2 C90's in each cab.

For about the past 1-1/2 years I've been using a Suhr Badger 18 due to the fact my Mark III was just too loud. About that time we put the drummer behind a plexiglass screen,... all of the sudden everybody was looking at me for being obnoxiously loud. Couldn't hit the sweet spot of the Mark III...

Just call Mesa Boogie direct, 707-778-6565

I have a Studio Pre, which has a loose wire coming from one of the effects loop jacks. Can someone upload a gut shot of their Studio Pre. I would like to compare, and try and figure out where this wire is supposed to connect. Thanks!!
