Boogie guys - mark III R2 revisions?

[Dave L]

Hi guys, I have a III+ modded from a no-dot, and rhythm 2 on this one seems cleaner compared to the blue stripe I had before. Tubes and components are freshly checked and fine. I think Mike doesn't mod the R2 gain when he does the R2 master volume, so unless it is changed up by the general III+ mod I'm thinking it probably is the stock R2 channel for that original revision. There's a lot of talk about the lead channels in the different stripes, but is there some evolution going on with R2 as well?

Good question. Not sure. My mkiii red st.mkiii coli red & blue all have ryth.2 mod but sound very close if not the same.I love mkiii ryth.2 mode on those.

Yes, even on the R2 channel the no/black/purple are lower gain than the red/blue/green.

Conceptually the III+ makes them all "the same", but pragmatically there is still some color from the basis that shows through.
