Looking for the later version with the Floyd Rose style string locking system. Also interested in buying the bridge posts if anyone has some. Thanks!

Imho can't go wrong with a IIC+ / III / IV. They are not exactly the same but have very similar qualities and in my experience if you like the Mesa mark tone you will enjoy any of the 3, just different flavours & features. Clean tone on Mark III is amazing. I have a III "+" blue stripe, I would...

Mesa Mark III or IV, you won't regret it. You can still find some good deals on them with a bit of luck and research.

I've had good experiences with 81, 57/66 and Hetfield bridge pickup

I have not had experience with these exact models but I have Japanese ESP Kamikaze-I (maple body, one piece maple neck and ebony fretboard) and it has really nice sound and feel to it. It is on the heavier side (similar to a Les Paul) but got a special character going for it, really cool guitar...

Found one - pls delete

Title says it all, hit me up - guitar doesn't have to be mint

How do you guys run the settings on your Pitbull module? I've not had the best tone out of the box with that one but haven't had it for very long so probably not setting it up right.

I don't have a 1987x but picked up a '72 50 watt JMP for a good price a few years ago. As you said, the '72 is a gain monster - clean tones are pretty much non-existent but it sounds absolutely amazing, can get pretty heavy tones just straight into the amp and can easily play metal with a bit of...

You can activate a multi cab mode on the KHE but I'm leaving it deactivated now to avoid any changes in impedance while amps are turned on (if you select another cab, it will add it to the existing one instead of swapping over, therefor changing the total impedance). Found out the hard way that...

Yep exactly the same... especially if you got the one with FX loops Works great though once its set up, just need to be cautious with the different impedance mismatches you might have when switching cabs

I have a API 550A and Great River 32EQ. I can confirm that the API just sounds great on guitars (electric and acoustic). For reason it just feels like it's a perfect match for the guitars mid-range and top end. I'm not a professional sound engineer by any means but for what it's worth I honestly...

I wonder how these (and other similar "legendary" 80s/90s gear) will retain value in the next 10/15 years. Unfortunately I think that bands like Metallica etc will somewhat decrease in popularity and gear like this will become even more niche than it is today given the older fans will be slowly...

Some people are just massively overpaying these. just picked up a mint factory DRGX head for 4k shipped on reverb a few months ago - not cheap by any means for a guitar amp but at least closer to what seems to be a fair value.

Agreed on the price hike, seems a bit too expensive to me to pay 1k to 2k (strandberg for example) for Indonesian made guitars compared to where they used to be sold at. However as said above, I am pretty sure that the quality on these today have improved a lot compared to 5 - 10 years ago so in...

Scale length might be slightly different between tunings as string tension will affect neck relief.

I have a HRG and DRGX, both original (both 13xxx , a couple hundred serials apart) and they virtually sound identical to my ears for what it's worth

I live in London and have bought expensive guitars and amps on reverb from the US, Japan, Hong Kong etc. without any issues. Only annoying thing is having to pay import duties on arrival...

Good point will try that as well - thanks!
