    Maverick 1X12 Combo - Need Fuse Installation Help, Please

    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!

    Maverick 1X12 Combo - Need Fuse Installation Help, Please

    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...

    Maverick 1X12 Combo - Need Fuse Installation Help, Please

    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...

    Question About My EL-84 .50 Caliber...

    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...

    Smelly Boogie - How Do I Get Rid Of This??

    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...

    Stratocaster Elite - Anyone Use With Their Boogie?

    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...

    Metallica Bleeding Me Clean?

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

    Ron Neely "The EH Man" - Just A Little Tardy

    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...

    Price check on a hardwood IIC+

    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...

    Smelly Boogie - How Do I Get Rid Of This??

    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...

    Smelly Boogie - How Do I Get Rid Of This??

    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!

    Smelly Boogie - How Do I Get Rid Of This??

    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!

    Smelly Boogie - How Do I Get Rid Of This??

    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...

    Studio 22/ Studio 22+

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

    .50 Caliber Cooling Fan Question...

    I spoke with Boogie and they recommend to [i]not[i] install the fan, because the chassis needs to be originally designed with the fan in mind. They are aware that the original .50 Caliber runs hot, but they also mentioned that any heat-related issues are extremely rare with this model...

    What am i looking at as far as an el84 50 cal+?

    It may have been an anomaly, but I have seen one single .50 Caliber Plus that had EL-84's in it. I specifically remember the flip switches being on the amp (no metal toggle switches). It was on ebay a few years ago...I guess someone could have modded it if they wanted to go to the trouble?

    .50 Caliber Cooling Fan Question...

    Howdy All, I have an original .50 Caliber from 1987 - the EL-84 version, which is also equipped with an EVM Black Shadow. I'm considering having a tech install a cooling fan in it because it runs so hot, but I have no idea what this usually costs? Can I get a cooling fan put in which can be...
