Hi folks. I have a mk 4 head that I've been using as a backup to my Mark 5 head. I recently had it up for auction on the bay with hopes of picking up a recto head, but the winning bidder backed out. Then i started thinking that perhaps I'd prefer a rack mount setup. So.. anyone want to trade...

Still looking for a Mark IV head? I have one as a backup for my Mark V, and I'm considering selling it to fund a different flavor (recto maybe). Just had it checked over by a Mesa authorized service shop. It's in perfect working order, and new Mesa tubes.

Sure, there may be many Mark 5 owners out there using Hard Bypass, but judging from the lack of response to this (and a handful of other threads like this), it seems that, for one reason or another, not many folks are interested in discussing the topic. I use my Mark 5 in both modes, with and...

My Theiles are about a year old, and therefore have C90's installed. I have heard so many amazing things about the EVM 12L's.. I'd love to try one in my cab, but they are quite difficult to find. I have read that the classic reissue is as good as the original... and quite expensive. Any...

Don... Let's have a Mark 5 + Theile demo next!!!

See my post from a while ago: http://forum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=50629 I was very surprised to find that many here feel there is little difference between the Loop settings (on/hard bypass). When using the loop from time to time, I struggle with change in sound AND feel...

Yes, I agree about the low end.. I may not have missed it if I hadn't tried the Theile... ...but I feel the Theile also adds a biting upper mid or treble sound... Could it be that the Theile's driver is not as broken in as the Combo's?

I play Floydish and metal music... I have a couple recent model Theile 1x12's (standard "cube" size with C90's) that I use for wet effect cabs, and my stock Mark V combo for dry tones. I recently A/B'd the stock combo vs. the Combo + 1 Theile together. Felt like I lost the mid characteristics...

Hey Folks, I'm interested in trading my one year old Mesa Thiele cab (like this one: http://www.mesaboogie.com/Product_Info/Guitar%20Cabinets/COMPACTcabs/Thiele-1x12-LG.htm) for a Mesa Widebody open back 1x12 (like this one...

Ok folks, Picked her up from the tech last night. He stated that a resistor was bad, causing channels 1 and 2 to fail. Haven't played yet though... Just thought I'd let y'all know in case you have similar trouble...
