Hi I would like to auto build the Amplifier Mesa Boogie MARK IV because it's too expansive for my possibilities. Is there anyone who has the electrical drawings? Who is the manufacturer of the tubes? Do you think it is possible to realize this ? Many thanks in advance Pierluigi Cecchi Florence Italy

The MK IV is pretty complex and uses some specialized parts, like the output transformer, that I think you'll have difficulty finding at your local electronics store. The tubes come from Russia and China--they are 4-6L6's, 5-12AX7's, and 1-12AT7. That's the easy part. It uses a bunch of LDR's for switching, and has a bigger bunch of pots and switches for controlling everything. You might be able to get a schematic from Mesa at 1317 Ross Street, Petaluma, CA 94952, but after you see it, you might decide to tackle something less complex. Good luck! Danny W. |
