I've been playing around with my mark IV today. my Lead channel has no where near the volume of my R2 or R1 so I'm trying to figure out what's going on. it has gain etc. but if I run R2 up to 5 I have to dime the Lead master to keep up with it. BUT the other thing I realized to day is that...

Pulled out probably my all time favorite 6 string I've ever owned My 2002 USA Jackson Select SL-1 I've been setting up a 4CM patch for the Mark IV today with the Fractal Fx8 MKII. I've Got a Parametric EQ with a high /low cut and a mid hump and output set at 4.00DB's up set for a lead boost and...

It looks like? the problem caps have been replaced with the black 4700's? the seller I got it from told me the previous owner had it "serviced" but gave me no details anyone here who knows these guts tell me what I'm seeing? any help would be greatly appreciated as it will cost me and arm and a...

I foolishly sold my mint "B" short head back in 2014 and have missed it dearly. this week I was lucky enough to grab a "Transitional" "B" head #6030 and am extremely happy to have one back in my possession. since apparently this is a somewhat "rare" version of these heads I am thinking of maybe...

I just pick up my 2nd mark IV (I foolishly sold my first one) I've generally preferred all 6L6's in the IV, but I've seen some posts in other forums of people really liking the IV with all 6V6's. What's does using that type of tube do and is it safe to do with the mark IV? I am primarily a...

I've owned a couple of Rectos in the past and a mark III red stripe and a mark IV "A". went the Axe Fx route and am now looking to add a real tube head back into the mix. The Tremoverb is the one Recto I have not had the change to 'try" yet. I miss my old mark IV , but find that I often crave a...

I have a recto 2X12 cab and would like to wire it as stereo, but would like a Mesa switch. do they sell them separately? I did not see them on their web site

I have a Fryette 2/50/2 power amp that I run with KT-77's I miss my old Mark Iv but since I have a very good power amp I figured I'd throw this out here Studio Pre or TriAxis. which one of these two would be a better fit with the Fryette and which one would get me closer to a mark IV lead...

Or is it a best like the usual rectos? I've been gas ing for one of these for years and would love to try one but the other rectos I've owned in the past need to be cranked to sound any good at all and I can't do that right now/

I saw one of these on Ebay and I thought I may like something like this to use with my Axe FX , but I have no idea if trimming down a side kills the "charm" that the recto 2 X12 cabs have that I love. anyone here have one? any ways to get one of these anywhere if I decide to pursue this line of...

the 50/50 or a 2:90 ?? is the 2:90 any more "neutral" than the 50/50 or are these based off of power sections of "amps" ?? I'm using a Matrix GT1000FX right now and it's not bad but I'd like to a/b it against the best Mesa power amp for this scenario and see which I like better. anyone try...

would a Mark III short head shell work with a mark IV short combo? I have a short head mark IV combo that I'd love to turn into a head and I know of a short headshell for sale but it had a mark III in it . are they the same size?

I was just jamming out a little on it and all of a sudden all of the gain disappeared from the lead channel. I still had my volume but it was completely clean. I switched over to R1.....fine R2.................fine back to lead.........still clean. I turned it off and went upstairs. came back...

Hey guys, currently i have a 6505+ head and a mark IVA. I've been gasing to try a Tremoverb for quite a while and now I may have the opportunity to score one, but I'm wondering how much different the gain structure will sound compared to the 6505+? My Mark IV is not going anywhere I love that...

I'm wondering because I have a hotplate and a volume pedal, and I'm wondering if the volume pedal in the loop will work as well or better/worse than a hotplate will. I know the "mark IV' has a great master volume and sounds good at lower volumes yada yada yada, I find all tube amps sound...

I was cleaning out the attic at my parents house this past weekend adn found a taped up box marked tubes on it. My dad passed away way back in 1986, he was an electrical engineer so I figured sooner or later I'd find something cool. Well I found a pair of slightly burned in orginal Tung Sol...

can anyone tell me if the vertical 2X12 recto sounds as good as the horizontal? I run my Mark IV thru a horizontal cab and I just picked up a 5150 II and I used to run one of these thru my horizontal cab and I loved it. there is a Vertical cab available locally to me and I'm wondering if...
