Mesa Boogie Stiletto - Fluid Drive preset
Verified · 90/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.
The Stiletto is Mesa/Boogie's EL34-powered, British-voiced line; this 2004 drawing covers the Deuce (four EL34s) and Trident (six). Two independent channels each have gain, treble, middle, bass, presence and master, with Channel 1 switching Fat Clean, Tite Clean or Crunch and Channel 2 Crunch, Tite Gain or Fluid Drive. Per-channel 50/100-watt switching, diode or 5U4 rectification, an effects loop and a solo control complete it.

Schematic-derived preset files for 16 Fractal and Line 6 modelers: Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, Axe-Fx III, FM3, FM9, and the full Helix family (Floor, LT, Rack, HX Stomp, HX Stomp XL, Native).
Gridleak extracts amp parameters from original circuit schematics using AI vision — component values, gain staging, tone stack topology, tube types — then generates native preset files for every supported modeler. Every extraction is scored 0–100 and the score is published.
