Am happy with my rack setup but saw a TA-15 for a good price on CL and snagged it. I forgot how good EL-84's can sound with a Strat.

Oh yeah...if you have not tried them, give them a whirl! I really really dig the neck Injector for soloing. It's been so long since I could solo comfortably with a single coil neck pup. And with the 61 in the middle, the 2-slot of my Strat is quite nice - not too glassy but quite good. Thanks...

I was wanting to push my Thiele cab, so I replaced the C90 with a Celestion G12H 30 watter. I was extremely happy with the result. More presence and upper mids - not so dark sounding - absolutely perfect for my JCM 800 module. For those of you who have Thieles, don't be afraid to experiment with...

I'm putting my SP on EBAY. The exterior is a bit rough, but it had a cap job last summer and sounds wonderful. Rack ears are not standard but work perfectly. No reverb pan included. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mesa-Boogie-Studio-Preamp-/131439793342?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e9a6c14be

I'm selling my rackmount Lonestar. It's got some warranty left. I'm including a bunch of 12AX7s and a quad of new Mesa 6L6GCs. Free shipping & $1,500 insurance too...

Hey guys, I'm selling my 4X10 Lonestar cab minus the chassis. I changed out the speakers to get more headroom. The cab will be securely packed in the same box that my 2X12 Mesa cab arrived in. I'm asking $275 PAYPAL, which includes $500 of insurance. I'll ship it UPS or FED - whatever you...

The local Mesa tech in Austin and I discussed this project last summer. After a few setbacks, the amp is finally done! It's got a Mesa power transformer. The choke & output transformer are from Marshall amps. There is a pentode/triode switch on the back, resonance/presence/volume controls on...

My son & I were visited Guitar Center Round Rock for his drum lesson on Saturday. While he was warming up, I was looking at the wall of guitars. He caught me looking at a guitar with a matte finish. I confessed that although I wasn't big on matte finishes, that chocolate Les Paul was nice. I had...

I have no idea where mine went. I had them off while the tech was doing work, and now they are gone. Hit me up if you have a pair to get rid of. Thanks.

Granted, it's a bass amp; but that's a step in the right direction. They even have a "current meter" to help you find Mesa's recommended range as you adjust your trim pot. I hope their new Strategy Bass amp with those big ol' KT-88s sounds as good as it looks. It's got different power...

She sound as mean as she looks!

I recently picked up a Studio Pre for $350 from the Guitar Center used pages. Cosmetically it's in great shape. I checked the insides and discovered one of the caps had been wrapped in electric tape. The tubes were such old Mesa 12AX7s that I did not even recognize them; it wouldn't surprise me...

I was fortunate enough to pick up a good deal on an ADA MP-1. I went ahead and ordered the 3TM board from one of the ADA DEPOT gurus, but it won't be here until next week as it's arriving from Germany. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that the MP-1 will work wonderfully through the...

Time for car repairs, which means the newest gear acquisitions have to go. So here ya go, Boogie Brethren, a nice effects processor in mint condition... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Line-6-Pod-HD-Pro-effects-processor-/130951184213?pt=US_Other_Pro_Audio&hash=item1e7d4c7f55

Got my handy plate voltage / bias probe in the mail today and recorded a few results for anybody interested. I will continue to post information on other tubes I own. JJ 6L6GC Tube Depot rated #28 bold diode 36.9 ma in 6l6 mode at 100w...PV=457 volts bold diode 39.7 ma in 6l6 mode at...

Hope you all have a safe and happy 4th of July. And beware of grocery stores!! I should have known better than to visit my local HEB today. :lol: For those of you serving in the military, I'd like to thank you for your service. And to my fellow veterans, I thank you for having served.

This amp is making me play more.

I recently bought a used 4X10 Lonestar Classic from the Guitar Center used pages. Marcus at Mesa was able to transfer the remainder of the warranty in my name; all I had to do was supply him with the serial number as a well as a copy of my receipt. Marcus was his usual prompt and professional...

I no longer need my variac as I always use tweed (spongy) on my Lonestar, just as I always used spongy on my Roadster. 8) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Sound-Workbench-Tone-Preserver-variac-w-3-settings-red-6-MM-AC-cord-/130856783426?ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:US:1123

When it came to 5751s vs 12AX7s, I always thought 5751s sounded better for cleans in nearly every amp I've owned; so naturally I replaced the stock Mesa 12AX7s with NOS 5751s. "Meh" sums it up best. I put some NOS 12AX7s in there and was blown away. I understand that the Lone Star was designed...
