What is a 4FB? Unfortunately, the forum does not allow a search on this-too few characters. Anyhow, I am aware that the Stilleto cabs were once the rectifier traditional cabs. I wonder how the 4FB, roughly being the same size as the Stilleto cabs, fits into this lineage. Is it a predecessor...

Hey guys, I'm wondering if any of you have had a similar problem. I am running from the studio pre to my rack to the 2:90. The problem is that the volume is insanely loud (over-powering a drum set) with the power amp turned to about 1/2 out of 10. Meanwhile, the rack effects are not...

I hear people classifying their power amp as an older or newer 2:ninety, but I don't know what that means. Can someone be kind enough to explain if there are any differences? (I was unsuccessful with the search function.)

I've got an older Dual with the designation on the speaker outputs "8-16 , 8-16 , 4 , 4" Are the jacks that say 8-16 parallel jacks with each other or with the 4-ohm jacks? or do they function as independent speaker outputs? I've got an 8-ohm cab and a 16-ohm cab, so I know that I could go out...

I've got a couple of Rev. E's and I couldn't get a lead boost out of the thing using the parallel effects loop. Do I need to have the effects loop modded to series to be able to do this?

The solo boost on my footswitch works intermittently. The channel switching button has never failed. I'm wondering if a little contact cleaner spray (or something similar) might fix the problem. Thanks in advance for your input.

I was rehearsing a month ago or so and had two 8-ohm cabinets plugged into the parallel 4-ohm jacks. The amp made a weird sound and then it stopped making any sound. So I put the amp to its original speaker cab configuration. I also tried a new pair of power tubes in it with no success...

I just thought I would share my recent experience, as I know some of you might be interested. The Lone Star broke down a couple of weeks ago, and I haven't had time to take it to Petaluma. Being that I still have gigs to do, I had to consider using another one of my amps. I'm in a wedding...

I bought one of these used, and it's the same color (blue) tolex as my Lone Star. I am planning on putting an EV inside and use it as an extension cab for my current set-up. I was wondering if I needed to close off the slot for the amp chassis. I realize that it's not a sealed back cabinet...

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/msg/600975150.html Check it out. He wants $2500 for the half-stack. I just figured somebody here might be interested.

I bought this amp last night. . . . turns out it's a Revision E. Now I have two Revision E's and nothing to compare them with. Is there anybody with a Rev. C or D in the San Francisco Bay Area that wants to help me do a comparison?

It looks like I will be buying an avatar cabinet. 2x12" with Celestion Greenbacks. Their blue is not quite the same as my Lone Star which I will primarily be using it with. I will also be using it with my Marshall, so black tolex is fine. I also already have a Bogner 2x12" which looks...

I have come across a guy who is willing to trade me his Mark IIB. According to him, "I have an 83' Mark IIB fully loaded with EQ/Reverb/EV speaker. It has been modded by Mike B. at Mesa to sound like a IIC+." My question is this: Does Mesa do mods to make a IIB sound like a IIC+ or might this...

I've been curious about giving my amp a few extra channels. How would I set up this rig? I would probably need to split the output of my guitar into inputs for the amp and whatever preamp I'm also using. I'm guessing I would need some type of switcher also and run the output into the effects...

I might have been a little harsh, but I wanted to share this with you. I have no problems with boutique or collector's item amplifiers escalating in price, but I am just sick of people trying to sell their gear at inflated prices, thinking they can set a new trend. Here is a clown who thinks...

I'm just doing some Christmas shopping for myself. How much for a 60 watt original Mark iic+ head, no simul, no graphic eq, in blonde tolex with matching cabinet, 12" EV speaker?

The one I'm interested is a simul-class combo with eq. Also, what kind of speakers do you prefer in your Mark ii combo?

What is the difference between a IIc modded to IIc+ spec's and a IIc+? What is the implication on the price? Also, can Mesa add a graphic EQ to a IIc modded to IIc+?

Hey all! I was wondering if you could tell me a little about this amp. I know that it's not a Rev. C or D so it's not necessarily collectable/inflated selling price. I was wonder if you guys thought this would be an amp that would possibly have more 'mojo' than some of the later 2 channel...

Dallas Mavericks that is. Go Warriors!
