    BE-50 Deluxe HBE no gain/thin

    Hi everyone, Visiting my parents right now and I noticed my dad's BE-50 Deluxe is acting up. The HBE channel has very little gain and is really thin and buzzy sounding compared to the BE channel, which seems to be working fine along with the clean channel. I've played on his amp a bunch during...

    VH4 no volume rise on Ch 4

    Hi all, I've had my 2007-ish VH4 in closet storage in a road case for quite a few years (apartment living, sigh...) - decided to pull it out and fire it up a few days ago and there's a problem with channel 4. The volume does not rise at all - I can hear quiet sound, the EQ knobs are affecting...

    Tube fault lights

    Got another question for the experts here... What exactly does it mean if my VH4's two left most tube fault lights are lit? They only light when I turn the standby switch to run and the fuses themselves do not look blown as far as I can tell looking at the filament and comparing them to the...

    VH tube recommendation?

    My VH4 blew its #1 and #2 power tubes last night during a show (thank you so much Peter for making this thing not totally die when that happens!), and I think I want to just completely retube it. (I've had the amp since October 07 - is this a normal tube lifespan?) It's been used twice a week...

    Source (US) for heavy duty casters?

    Has anyone replaced the casters on their Diezel 4X12 with really heavy duty ones and know of a source for purchasing them? The stock ones have gone bad somehow on mine and the cab barely rolls now because they won't rotate with weight on them... Thanks, Ryan

    VH4 hum/ground loop issue

    I just wanted to check here on this issue I'm having before I buy anything else in an attempt to fix it. I'm having a major hum problem trying to run my VH4 and my new Fractal Axe-FX processor/preamp together using the "four cable method." The signal path goes like this: Guitar > Axe-FX front...

    Slip covers for VH4 and cab?

    Anyone know where I could get slip covers for my head and cab that are akin to those that come with Mesa stuff? I have Anvil ATA cases, but they're way too bulky for local shows and I think I'm only gonna use them for road trips etc... Thanks! Ryan

    Need some help with my new VH4

    Hi guys, I got my VH4 this past week and I'm having an issue with the clean channels (1 & 2). There's a sort of high frequency distortion that's happening when I strum a chord - it fades and crackles out over about 2 seconds or so. I called Uwe Salwender right after I got the amp and he sent...

    New VH4 - questions

    Hi everyone, After a year of fighting my Mesa Road King II trying to get the clean and lead sounds I hear in my head, I ordered a VH4 and a rear loaded 4X12 with V30's about a week and a half ago... It was a really hard decision between the VH4 and the Herbert because I really liked both, but...
