isn't it TBer Ben Strange that has the one-off Mesa Bass triaxis rig ?

Other than Ben's (?) I don't think there are any others.

Didn't John Myung have one made for him in the early 90's when Petrucci was using the TriAxis?

I know Ben's got one... and claims it's the only one. I've also heard that John Myung has one, but don't know if its a guitar rig or bass. I know John has a Rectifier in his setup.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Myung, in regard to his amplification during the Awake/Change of Seasons era

Quote:
For amplification, he was using Mesa Boogie Strategy 400 power amps, a Mesa Boogie Bass 400+, and a modified Mesa Boogie Triaxis guitar preamp with several transistors swapped out for ones that would support the lower range of a bass guitar.

That doesnt make sense, more commonly capacitors are changed to affect the low freq cutoff /voicing of a preamp. Do it to my fuzz pedals ALL the time.
I dont doubt there are transistors in the Triaxis, but dont think Randall would put them in the signal path.

Not calling you out, more like the wiki.
