Whats a fair price to pay for a IIB upgraded to IIC+??

Who did the C+ mod?

As it stands, only a IIC can be upgraded to a IIC+

Thanks!

that is true as of now but wasn't true some 20 or 25 years ago.
I have one of the 20+ IIB upgraded to IIC+ (by Mike Bendinelli) and I have even seen in this site a couple of IIA upgraded.

One thing that I am not sure it is right is the comment about a IIB with a 105 transformer. I thought that the IIB was coming with a 100 trannie but, most probably, I am wrong.

Tien (aka "Authorized Boogie"),
igfrasso is correct. IIB's could be and some were modded to a C+

In order for a IIB to be modded to a C+ the pre-amp board in the IIB needed to be taken out and the C+ pre-amp board installed.
So if the IIB "1234Boogie" is looking at has the RP-11A pre-amp board in it it, then it was modded to a C+

(Fwiw RP-10 and/ or RP-10A were pre amp boards in IIC's. As we know these amps could be modded to a C+,
Also at some point I'm pretty sure Mesa started labelling pre-amp boards as "SP-11A" for C+'s without reverb.
So it's conceivable a IIB modded to a IIC+ could have any one of those boards in it.)

As Daniel mentioned about 20 or so were done
(There's been 20 or so that we have seen over the years).

Although I'm not Tien, you are correct. Which is why I asked about who did the C+ mod - "as it stands" means currently - but yes, in the past Mike B was able to do it with a board replacement. You'd be surprised how many MKII's we see that were "modded to a C+" by random techs in the field. Thanks!

There is NO such upgrade available for a IIB. Sorry. Only a IIC can be upgraded to a IIC+.
