Anyone have a schematic for a 2016 Mesa mark V?
Thanks in advance !
Also what’s a good non addictive pain killer for the headache I am going to have from working on this 10 lbs of crap in a 2lb bag?
This dam thing has atleast 32 relays in it!!!!
When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car!

Good luck! I had a Zinky in the shop recently that had at least that many relays if not more, and everything was covered in hot glue and/or inaccessible from the chassis design. I told him to come back when something major breaks because I didn't want to deal with it. At least that mesa has a sort of open layout, aside from stacked boards and too many ribbon cables...

That’s for the schematic link.
Well in checking with the schematic the amps issue is thank God not relay related, it looks like the regulator for the 12 vdc heater is bad.

So unlike the mark V schematic at el34 world, this mark V has 3 preamp tubes that run on dc filiments which is the trouble area in this amp I have.
Anyone seen a schematic for this circuit?
