Ah ok, got it! I found an old price menu list pamphlet from about 11 years ago which I'm sure has changed. Is there any way to view prices for specific cabinetry options, sizes, etc. online? Thanks for your reply!

I emailed with someone at Mesa a few months ago when I was considering purchasing a Mark III and they seemed to say it'd be okay to get it redone in whatever tolex/grille I would like. Today, I called Mesa, and the guy on the phone said that you can't bring an amp in to get re-done. What's...

Hello! I haven't been on the Boogie Board in a few years but miraculously just remembered my password! I'm here to ask about a problem I'm having with my McCarty to see if anyone can diagnose it. Firstly, with both my MC and my Les Paul, the higher three strings seem to click/notch into tune...

...but I don't have any carpentry/luthier skills and need to know where to start. This is just a dream for down the line. I have the Tom DeLonge Fender Strat, and my biggest question/concern was this: it's only got one pickup, but is there a way I could cut up the pickguard to put in a second...

I play my RKII combo with the gain on Ch 4 at about 1:00 and kick on an overdrive pedal (SPF Green Line) to give it the fullness I want. I recently took my amp in for a servicing (maybe around 6 months) and they retubed the whole thing for me. Chris at Mesa also gave me one 12AX7 for good...

Are you trying to use Brit for cleans or a more crunchy sound?

Took it in Tuesday and ran through it with Kris at Mesa. He ran through it testing all the tubes tapping on them and cranking the volume/switching tube combinations on my RKII. He swapped out ALL my tubes after finally realizing it was the EL34s...and those were all he charged me for! He said...

Yeah I've hear that a little before but this is straight crackling through the speakers.

For what it's worth: I replaced two of the 6L6's before and have the amp set on using just those. I will run the test soon like you said but in regArds to the 6L6's: do you have any idea which ones are in use while set on just two of them in the RKII? I'm suspecting you're right, and dreading...

So I think I finally narrowed down this problem after having my amp in my trunk and never having taken it into Mesa. I was supposed to take it but just never got around to it after thinking i diagnosed the problem myself. got my RKII back inside today and it did the same thing: crackled like a...

I have a 2004 McCarty which has covered pickups that are corroding along with the bridge. How do I clean this without stripping the gold plating that PRS put on this hardware?

And my dad sprung it on me, "What do you want for your birthday?!" Turning 22 and I couldn't think of anything, but then he said the G word and it was my idea of a big boy toy that I might need as a gift. It got me thinking about the SG Faded I've sort-of lusted after, but of course one little...

It's the Smart People Factory Green Line OD. It's got a lot of potential. A mud switch, and a modern/vintage switch allow some versatility. Mud switch is not on when I use it as a boost, it seems the mud is only noticeable when going for a soft/driven/boosted lead.

Geez, I don't know if I can think of 5, once I think of one two others pop up to replace it. I'm younger than a lot of guys on here it seems (21) so please don't be harsh on me: Marty Friedman (Rust in Peace and Scenes) EVH (Ain't Talkin Bout Love or Drop Dead Legs) Hetfield (whenever...

I'm kind-of under the suspicion that Boogie let them use the V even in recording of Wrath.
