It was the LED, thanks! I had a single ch Fender footswitch and that did the trick.

Good morning! Does anyone know if the Mark IIA footswitch would be different than, lets say, a Recto 1 button footswitch? I tried changing channels with it and the light on the footswitch activated, but I got a weird feedback from the amp. I opened it up and everything seems to be in order...

Thanks for digging this up! I've got a IIA at home with minimal 'verb and I'll be doing this after work.

Good evening! On my Mark IIA, when the Master 1 is pulled the reverb works fine... But when pushed in it hums. Also, when there is a patch cable plugged into the reverb foots witch underneath the chassis (and held in my hand) it works when Master 1 is plugged in. So I assume it has something to...

Thank you! I could not find that anywhere (and Mesa is closed today.) I was able to remove the faceplate, unbending the pins to dislodge the slider PCB... but with the sliders themselves, its too big to slide out of the chassis! So I need to figure out how to remove something else to give enough...

So im in the process of replacing one of the sliders on my Mark IIB Coliseum and I noticed one of the parts on the EQ panel looks like it has rotted away. I attached a photo below and I hope someone can let me know what the part is. It is what looks to be a big brown capacitor, you can see 4 of...

Hey everyone, Anyone know the best place to purchase wicker cane for a new headshell grille? In addition to that, what size comes on a Mesa headshell/cab? Sorry of this has been covered before, but thanks in advanced!

Going to retolex my Mark IIB with a wicker grill, but still unsure on tolex. Just gathering opinions on everyone's favorite wicker/tolex/corner combos! Pictures are more than welcomed.

My current collection consists of: '82 Mesa Mark IIB Coliseum '92 2ch Mesa Dual Rectifier '65 Fender Tremolux 50w Ceriatone Overtone Special Vox AC4TV But there is an even longer list of things that I traded/sold.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I've owned/tested a lot of them, but the IIB and 2ch Recto just kind of fell into my lap and I couldn't be happier. (Once my IIB is looking mint again that is.)

Thanks for the tip GTS. I was thinking about just stripping and retolexing, save some time and money. I saw that you did one a while ago in a Bruno Marvelon tolex/Wicker that looked amazing. Ive had good luck retolexing a few things in the past... hardwood just looks classy! (But so did that...

Turns out my father doesn't have a router... so my aspirations for building a cabinet may be temporarily put on hold. I figured id need a lot of practice either way before I destroy some nice hardwood. For a pine cabinet I was recently quote around $235 (Stained, lacquered, and hardware) which...

Thanks for the reply, and the information on wood/dove size. I wasn't thinking anything too extravagant (especially if I see if my father wants to give it a go) but probably maple, maybe red curly maple. There are a few places that have some that's not TOO pricey. One company i spoke to...

Thank you! This is what I was looking for. Ill be ordering a new slider in a little bit. Thank you as well for replying to my other post. From my research thats my conclusion as well, I may very well have to send him a PM. Thanks!

Hey everyone! Ive been searching the web for a bit trying to track down information on this task with not much luck. Anyone with experience in this, or tips on how to go about changing it would be greatly appreciated. Im handy with a soldering iron, so thats not a problem, I just dont want to...

Thats what I was afraid of. Im going to be retolexing the cab in the upcoming weeks, so maybe ill take it all apart and see what I can do... or call me local tech in the morning and see what his prices are. haha. Its just 1 tab thats broken off! ugh.

Hey everyone, Ive been a long time lurker, but this is my first post. I recently picked up a '82 Mark IIB Coliseum for 500 bucks that needs a little TLC. The fan was making a ridiculous noise in Sam Ash which is why I got it for cheap, which was an easy fix. I was surprised at how much gain it...
