In this video, we'll dive headlong into an early 1993 Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Solo Head (R-001148). This one is so early it still has the chrome chassis with black lettering. This is the early 2-Channel version (Rev. F) with some issues which we will repair, including red plating tubes and no output.

You have 2 beautiful children and they deserve a full time mom and dad. My wife and I had some really rough times but we raised 2 kids that got the message. One has been married for 26 years and the other 23. Not being judgmental but wishing the best for you and your family.

@jacktheripped that's definitely not an ESD wrist strap. It's a hospital band.
@kasamikona
@kasamikona 4 жыл бұрын
​@jacktheripped Pretty sure it's a hospital band, looks exactly like one I got. Most ESD straps are just some kind of elastic, not the fold and button fastening you see there. There's also a large flat area which is meant for writing patient info, in fact you can see some print on it. The whole thing appears to be one piece with no conductive part, and no sign of any stud for an actual grounding lead. Besides, putting "hospital wrist strap" into google images brings up something that looks exactly like that within the first few images. Anyway, love and best wishes for Brad and whatever struggles he may be going through right now.

I used to be Mesa Boogie authorized. Visited their factory in Novato, CA north of San Fran. Nice factory and great people back then. Don't know about now. Yes the amps cooks be easier physically to work on but aside from that (and i told them so) whomever drew up their schematics should be shot. I know anyone who's tried to follow those things page to page agrees. That's half the issue that makes them so difficult to trace especially when you're trying to follow some of the FET switching lines😬. I once asked if they had any board layout pages so at least you could find the components. They sent me Gerber files. Note of you've ever seen them....you're eyes will go alk googly trying to use those. Anyway aside from being a pain in the ass to work on it is also fairly rewarding once you finally do beat the bastard😬. Nice work...

I used to own a first gen triple rectifier when only 2 places in my state had em before GC got involved. It only had 2 channels, not 3, and a 1 button foot switch just to switch the clean and distortion channels. I sold it years ago, cuz 150 watts became kinda overkill for me, and switching from 6L6’s to EL34’s was a PITA to bias unless you bought Mesa tubes with the same gain rating, and my amp tech refused to work on it like you. lol. I totally get it, man! Great sounding amp though.
@NickP333
@NickP333 4 жыл бұрын
Phenomenal job figuring that mess out. One of the reasons I sold my triple rectifier was that it ended up being unreliable on the road and just in general. Not to mention, there was just way too much sh*t shoved in there. Ya just don’t need that many options. I went back to my much simpler Marshalls instead. Brad, I’m so sorry to hear about your issues with your wife and your current state of mind. You’re far from being alone. The world is so f’d right now. Just please know that there’s a lot of people that love and care a ton about you and your wellbeing. People who don’t even know you personally, including myself.

Sorry, again, to hear of the difficulties you’re going thru, Brad. We are definitely living “in interesting times”, and it’s putting a strain on people’s lives, relationships, finances, mental healths, etc. Regarding the “outside” stuff, we all need to learn to step away from the constant bombardment of information (good & bad, fake & real). And when we do go back to it, we limit our exposure and try not to get sucked into the vortex again. Faith, family, community, country... in that order (although all four are important)... will help to right your own ship... and, in doing so, will help to also right the other ships in this turbulent ocean of our crazy world. Hang in there. Do what your need to do to repair any of the breaches in the hull and the tears in the sails. God will see you thru. In the meantime, I bought a variac t-shirt to help yah out. Now, where did I place my paddleball??? 😉😆🎸🎼🎶🎵

Never watched a video like this before - ended up here after spending the morning researching doing a preamp and power tube swap on my Peavey XXX. Really enjoyed the video, even though my knowledge of everything you were doing is very basic. I could understand what you were doing and why, I just know I couldn’t do it lol

Hey Brad, sorry to hear life is throwing you curves. Thanks for a great video, I always keep an eye out for new ones. Your videos have been good inspiration for me, can't afford the price for the tube amps I want, so I build them.

Cool! Been missing this stuff! Great production this time, very visual and easy to follow. Funny thing, you're the only channel I watch the beginning ad on. I actually like your sponsor ads. Good job. I'm sorry about the hardcomings you're going through. Hopefully there's light in the future.

WOHOOOOO! Brad uploaded! I needed that so much.💪 I hope, everything works out good for you and your family, buddy. But, c'mon man .... Mesa? You gotta be kiddin'! Had them on my bench like three times. Every f****n one was a DISASTER! Just knock it off, you can't be that desperate.

It really is a difficult time to watch what is happening in the world, almost as difficult as working on Mesas or Peaveys. I hope you get everything worked out and get into a better place dude. I really enjoy your videos and as an amateur amp designer/builder/fixer they have been INCREDIBLY helpful and educational. Best luck and best wishes!

I'd rather work on a Peavey head over a Mesa anything. A Rectifier is 10lbs of shit stuffed into a 2lb box, as to the Peavey layouts are alot smoother from board to board, it's just that the molex connectors are the main thing that inside Peavey's, as well as certain models like the XXX with the 100ohm screen grid resistors. Still easier to work on and repair and replace them working on the Rectifier he's working on in this video.
