Mesa Boogie F50

Anyone modded one of these?
I find they're a little hard sounding so I've ordered a vintage style alnico speaker for it in an attempt to sweeten it up.
Be interested to hear of any improvements with tubes too.

No mods here, but I'd like to see what it is...my bandmate has one and it is a really nice sounding amp. Doesn't have all that extra bull that Mesa usually has.

Well, some years on now and I still don't find this amp quite right even with a much better alnico weber speaker.
I'm startimng to think it's like the bastard child of Fender and Marshall. It's like a jack of all trades and master of none. The amp is quite hard sounding and I'm wondering if I can change the power tubes to a more Fender taste.
