Mesa Boogie Stiletto Stage II - Fluid Drive preset
Verified · 85/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.
The Stiletto Stage II expanded the original Stiletto to three channels and 100 watts, adding a dedicated clean channel and increasing the tonal range of Mesa's EL34-based platform. Its three-channel layout mirrors the architecture of the Dual Rectifier and Mark IV in scope while delivering a distinctly British-flavored character from the EL34 power section. It represented Mesa's most ambitious effort to compete directly with high-end EL34 amplifiers from Bogner, Diezel, and other boutique builders.
