I've been tone chasing and my conclusion, nothing sounds as good as my RM100 even with stock modules. I realized after i bought the mark the tone clips i liked the best were actually modded modules. Not only that i can get close to a mark tone with my stock treadplate and a graphic eq. I'm just...

I bought a mark v and have decided i can't live without the tones of my mts modules and their stockers. I'm on the fence about switching from my rm100 to an mr/rm4. I have a vintage tube power amp that was PA amp for a golf course, i could really easily fix up, and i wouldn't have to worry about...

I bet the first modded to offer a weight reduction mod will bank. If you change the power transformer from an EI type to toroidal most of the weight will be gone. The tricky part just adjusting the power supply, toroidals are more efficient and have less magnetic leakage. I bet someone could...

This is the tone i want can anyone instruct me on how to get it besides buying all her gear. http://www.gretchenmenn.com/ the second video on her audio/video page is the one i really liked.

How do i get a pop rock tone? I've always played hard rock metal and i'm filling in, in a pop rock band for a few weeks this summer. So i guess which module should i use or what in conjunction with a module? I assume my EMG loaded guitars is not helping.

I've been running my rm100 at 12.5 watts. Only 2 power tubes and a home made attenuator. Very minimum if any tone coloration, then again it's only -6db, sure makes a difference at home. Granted using two 100W resistors means this thing is way over built. I had used a webber mass motor in my...

I just left the guitar store for the second time and first time I played a mesa transatlantic 30, today i played a Mark v, and an egnator renegade. I love the loose open bright feel of the mesa amps far better the dark stiff feel of my Randall. I have a blackface, tweed, tread plate and SL+, any...

is it me or are EMG's to thick or bassy>

I'm a do it yourself type person, has any of you pro modders considered selling mod kits?

I don't know if this is normal, my tweed module always been like this. i have to crank the volume higher on it than i do on my blackface module, and it feels very sluggish and always muddy.

so why a 5751 in the PI not a 12au7 or 12at7?

What do you guys know about preamp stage biasing, hot and cold? All examples below are with a 100K plate load. 1.5K is pretty neutral and will give you the most head room on that stage. A higher resistance give your a colder harsher clipping distortion a lower Resistance gives you a warmer...

If i remember correctly to add a mid sweep to a module you have to replace the slop resistor with the lowest value you'll want and then add a pot in series. The pot is what makes it adjustable. On the Recto, Black Face, and SL+ schematic i got from Randall R31 in the slop resistor.

I have to put my bass on less than half, and my highs and mids all the way up to get any clarity this isn't normal i don't think?

So i was at my parents sorting threw some old junk, and found a bag of poly fill. I've been to lazy to carry my big cab home from church, and well it's to loud for home anyways. My 1x12 tube works cab sounds good but not great. I stuffed the whole bag of poly fill in the back of my cab and wow...

in comparison to the actual amps being modeled how do you guys feel about the clarity of the RM100?

how often should i have to rebias? seems like as long as i've had it, i've had to rebias ever week. One tube will drift, biasing a pain the pots are so touch!

Anyone tried one of these cabs? I want a 1x12 that still sounds good

I just recently bought a new tweed module, and compared to my blackface and sl+ it feel sluggish and i don't remember the one i tried at the store feeling this way. Is this normal?

Anyone have a mod for the fx loop, to switch between line level and instrument level????
