    FS: Tremoverb

    You get the amp and the Voodooman footswitch. There are some cosmetic blemishes you can see in the pics. The metal bar for the back is missing, that's the way I bought it. The amp was repaired by Mike B at Mesa not too long after I bought it. The repairs were sorta kinda chronicled here...

    FS: Tremoverb

    I gotta pay for a few car repairs, and I'm headed off to college. I don't need this AND my Mark IV, and I happen to like my Mark IV better. The amp has been recently repaired by Mesa. I had some issues with this amp, as chronicled here. I have the repair slip thingy if you want to know what...

    What modeling unit (POD, Gt10 etc) would you guys recommend?

    I'm looking for some sort of unit I can plug my headphones into or run through a regular stereo. I was looking at stuff like the POD Live or GT10, but I'm not sure which will suit my needs better. I'm looking mainly for something that will give me a good saturated distortion sound with...

    Need to buy a tube/tubes as a gift for a tone junkie

    Hey guys, I'm the kind of player that likes clear distortion and really little else matters. I don't notice nuance differences in tone. I have a teacher that is a total tone junkie, and I thought it would be cool to buy him some sweet sounding NOS tube for his Vox AC30. I need to buy him a...

    Ibanez S540

    I think it's a 1997 model, serial is F97xxxxx. The trem is a LoPro. I want to sell it because even since I got my 7 string this thing has just been hanging on the wall and collecting dust. The only flaw on it is a dent the size of the tip of a ballpoint pen on the back. It took me a while to...

    Tremoverb is kind of quiet

    I just bought a Tremoverb. The clean channel with maxed everything is quiet enough to hear my guitar strings clacking even when my ear is next to the speaker. The red channel is a bit better, but at maxed active master (the black knob) and the channel master at about 2 O'clock, the amp is...

    Burning smell...!

    So, my Mark IV sort-of fried today. Friend walks into my room while I'm sitting in front of my computer, guitar in hand. Amp is on. Says he smells something burning. Can't figure out where it's coming from. About 30 seconds later the amp sort of "pops" off. I make a connection. Burning -> amp...

    Is there a more "shreddy" explorer style guitar?

    By shreddy I mean it doesn't have a baseball for a neck, and it has a Floyd. I know there's the Jackson Kelly, but the body on that is a bit smaller than the Explorer. I also remember ESP making some kind of Explorer, but now all I can find is the one where the back end looks really strange...

    Different version of the Rivera Knucklehead

    Hey, I was hoping someone could tell me how different some models of the Knucklehead are. I saw a Knucklehead II on eBay, and it's cheaper than the other two Knuckleheads up there. I noticed it has more knobs than the K Tre, so feature wise it looks like it has more. However I'm wondering if one...

    FS: Mark Combo Case

    Hey guys, this is my first time trying to sell something here. Right away if you need references, my fleabay ID is wojtekdworak. I think there is also a user here named Whoopysnorp or something like that who I sold a pair of tubes to in person. If you want I can also PM you a number to call me...

    Can someone give me general tips on mic placement?

    I'd like to know how moving a mic generally affects the recorded sound. What does angling the mic towards/away from the cone do? Physically moving the mic around? Putting it closer/further away? I've got a Mark IV with an EVM 12L Thiele. This is my first time experimenting. My mic isn't ideal...

    DC 10 vs Mark IV

    Hey, I currently have a Mark IV, but to be honest, when I hear recording of any Mark IV, I hear very smooth gain - not something that I like. When I hear my amp in person, I hear some grit. But it seems every recording of a Mark IV is just too smooth for my liking. I remember reading somewhere...

    Can anyone help me figure out what pickup suits me?

    I recently got an Ibanez S540 with the stock QM in the bridge. I find this pickup to be very boomy, possibly due to the tubes in my Mark IV adding a lot of bass (Trust me, a LOT more bass than Mesa tubes). I've got an L500XL in my other guitar, and love how it sounds, but I don't want the same...

    Roadster vs Voodoo Mod Dual Rec

    I've been wanting a Roadster for a while to get a different sound than my Mark IV, since I like the distortion that the Dual Recs I have played had. I say Roadster and not Dual Rec because I also want something that has a decent clean channel. However, on my local Craigslist, there's a Voodoo...

    Ugh I hate morons

    I went to pick up a mesa Roadready 412 today. It took the guy 4 days to check what speakers were in it, and he said they were EV 12Ls. I spend an hour to get there, and the first thing I notice is ribs on the cones of all 4 speakers. I thought maybe it was a recone job. Then I say to my dad who...

    Dual Recto with Roadcase for $800 in Chicago

    http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/msg/956857998.html Not mine. I'd jump on it if I didn't have other plans for my money.

    Are power tubes supposed to glow blue....?

    I removed the chassis of my Mark IV from the combo today to take a look at the tubes. One of my power tubes is rattling, so I'm pretty sure that has to get replaced, but what made me wonder a bit is that when I went out of stand by mode, all the power tubes had this blueish glow inside. The...

    I made a Thiele....

    I finished it about a week ago. I just took some pictures, but I didn't have very good lighting... Maybe I'll some better pictures up tomorrow if there's some sunlight. The grill is cut out from a 2ft by 2ft piece of security grade expanded metal. Yes, that is what these metal grills are...

    Am I risking blwoing my speaker?

    I recently tuned my guitar down to C Standard, and I'm wondering if the bass could blow the EVM 12L in the Thiele I built. I tend to boost the bass on my Mark IV kind of high. I plan on building a 115 Thiele soon anyway to get better bottom end, but I wanna check if it's alright to use the 112.

    Mark series reverb tank placement in heads

    I'm thinking of turning my Mark IV combo into a head to match the thiele I made. How is the reverb tank placed in typical mark series heads? I took a look on eBay, but didn't see anything that answered my question. Thanks for any help, and possibly pictures!
