That's the Slo-blow fuse sa power section. Frotection from power fluctuations. It does not look busted, and it shouldn't be, since nagpopower on pa yung amp. :)

Baka may iba pang fuse somewhere? Yung more on the output side, not the power side.. Pero I'm no amp tech, I'm not even sure if the DC-5 has another fuse for the output section. Hahaha.

May instances lang kasi ganun. Bigla nalang walang tunog kahit may power. Sometimes it's the tubes, pero minsan yung fuse sa output section.

BTW, Ive found out a couple of weeks ago that my Mesa DC5 is not producing any sound.
Was able to contact mang Raul just to check if he's still in the business. Was suppose to wait for the mini Mark to arrive before I acquire Mang Raul's service.
Iniisip ko asi convert to 220 ung mini Mark.  Tsaka iniisip ko kasi either ung preamp or ung speakers ang sira. Kung speakers, hindi ko magagamit ung mini Mark. Pero may lumabas na tunog using the mini Mark, so ung preamp may problem.

Just some quick questions before I hire Mang Raul,
1) May tunog parin bang lalabas kahit isang tubo lang ang problem? May naririnig kasi akong "space" or "hollow" or "reverb" type sound coming from my broken amp. Yun lang.
2) Kung tubo may problema, pano ko malalaman?
3) It is wise to have the mini Mark converted to 220v? I know mag iiba tunog. Pero naka basa ako kaya ni Mang Raul maconvert kahit hindi magbago tunog..

Me:  Mang Raul, 'pag po ba pina-convert ko to 220 yung amp ko magbabago ang tunog?
Mang Raul:  'Pag ako ang nag-convert, hindi magbabago ang tunog.

From my experience, hindi nga nagbago ang tunog.  Mga 2 months din sa akin na 110v yung Mesa amp ko bago ko pina-convert so I became very familiar na talaga sa tone nung amp on certain settings.  I am pretty sure na hindi nagbago ang tunog.   :mrgreen:

Oh yeah sayo ko nga nabasa un. haha.. Thanks a lot!
That is the better investment than a transformer anyways

@chino.
Will go inside to find out if there is another fuse. If not, then mang raul it is

I met the man himself Randall Smith in his tone workshop last saturday here in Texas. He is a visionary, guy never runs out of ideas. Hedid talked anout his humble beginnings and how he achieved the american dream.
Too bad he did not talked much about Metallica, only as bunch of kids he yelled at his shop because one of them were eating ice cream close to one of the expensive guitars.

He talked about Keith Richards, Ron Wood, Santana, etc being nice people considering how big they are.

It is also interesting to hear how he does not give a [strawberry] to tone cork sniffers who cant really play because "they are frustrated musicians"

It depends sa condition, paps.  Kung minty, in my opinion, US SRP (brand new) minus 10% pwede na.  So, around 40k maybe?  :-)

meron pa bang store na nag bebenta ng boogie cabs?

JB does sell them, kahit dito sa mismong PM meron every once in awhile.

So i was able to purchase a mini rec from Philmusic  FB a couple of weeks ago. Here are my thoughts..


P!@#$%^ BAKIT GANUN YUNG EQ SOBRANG SENSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Kidding aside...the best tone that i got from the mini rec was plugging in a Mesa Boogie Flux Five EQ in the effects loop and then using it as an attenuator so can crank up the gain and the volume at bedroom levels. Sobrang lakas nung amp kahit 10W mode.

At dahil yung EQ section ng Mark Series ay nasa Flux Five, the mini rec now sounds tighter. I guess it's now a Mini Rec Mark amp. haha

Btw....the Filmore series sounds killer!

100 Volts. I think sa Japan ito galing. The original owner included a 110 and 100 Volts Transformer.
Custom made cabinet yung gamit ko. 2x12 with Eminence Governor (75W) and Screaming Eagle (50W). Magkaiba ung EQ nung speaker (Governor - more mids, Screaming Eagle - scooped mids) so i'm getting a very neutral/flat response.
