Hi, I just bought a used 2000 Mcarty with a Duncan bridge and a Dimarzio next pickup and I think something is off with the push pull. Shouldn’t the coil tap with the 3 way in the middle be hum free? I’m still hearing 60 cycle hum. Any help would be appreciated.

Put it in V3.... much better. Replacing V2 made the amp muddy.

No volume on a Boss Flanger

I get a serious volume boost when i turn on my Boss BF-2 in the loop of the MT-15... this didn't happen on my Mesa.... anyone else seeing this? If not, what Flanger are you using? Thanks

Update I've messed around with my setup on the weekend and i can isolate it to the Flanger. For some reason the loop doesn't agree with it so i might need to run it out front or look at another brand.

These pedals worked fine with Marshall, Mesa and Orange amps.... somethings off with the FX loop on the MT-15. Is it Parallel or serial?

I get a huge volume jump when using my Boss BF-2 flanger in the loop and i'm thinking the loop might be line level? If so, this is disappointing... most people are using pedals these days and the amp should have been built around that.

The one i replaced was the 4-5 gain stage for the lead as per Shawn's drawing...it should be V3.

Replacing V3 with a 12AT7X does miracles for this amp.... smooths the gain out and helps with the taper. In V2 it was too muddy but V3 was perfect!

So if I replace V2 & V3 with a 5751 I should see a good reduction in gain?

Thanks guys... i'll bring it to my tech.

Hi, Does anyone know the gauge of string the slots are pre-cut too? Also, do you think the slots are deep enough that you could just remove material from the bottom of the nut to adjust height? Thanks

No, i'm fine with the hum.... i'm using Duncan's as well so 4 conductor is there.

Hi Guys, I just wired up my CE22 with this wiring and i'm hearing 60 cycle hum when i split the humbuckers....is this normal? I'm pretty sure it's normal but i wanted to be sure., Thanks
