all i can say is AMEN BROTHER! ~mike~

deizel vs mesa?.... deizel... ~mike~

What frustrated me was that a Mark III sounded great through my cabinet, and the Mark V did not. .... or through its own built in cabinet. When you cant get decent bass but all from the most monstous of cabinets, something needs to be reworked, and it isnt the cab. Its crazy tho, they had it...

i was using a ported 1/12 cabinet, ( real folding port , not just holes).The thing is you shouldnt HAVE to spend another 5-600 bucks on an extra cab, just because the amp designer made a poor choice. its like saying, hey my mercedes stalls at idle.. get a new engine! lol or dont get that...

to the OP, youre right, extreme mode does sound the best. It should have simply been named Mark V mode. ~mike~

or maybe the guys who post not enough bass, are ACTUAL OWNERS OF THE AMP, rather than who guesses on transformer size, and assumes incorrectly that transformers are the sole determiner of bass levels and or timbre. Mike~

yeah that did seem a little suspect to me.

Hope it sells, just sold mine for 1800. ~mike~

I thought Channel two crunch mode gain and trebble full up was the best gain sound on the Mark V. Very clean and more alive than any of the Mark settings. Mesa should base an amp around that alone (or is that what the stilletto is?) ~mike~

the answer is you dont. Mesa decided it was a bad idea... Dont ask why... there may be no reason. ~mike~

responses to three. of these. mark one. Who wants to spend 2 grand on amp with only 2/3 of it useable? (althought i did find it useable) The Mark III's low end stomped all over this thats all i know. Eq. Compared to a mark III, it really is cheap and crappy. No where near the prescision, and...

Unfortunately it doesn't exist in new form ( which i want cuz im obsessive). The best tone i ever heard was a 1993 VHT Classic 100 reverb combo. Perfect, i mean PERFECT high gain tone, defined , heavy, and this vocal bark to it that just .... HEAVEN. I played it at GC, it was in GREAT condition...

haha , cool, im glad youre enjoying it man. In the end it just wasn't for me. And i really dig my tweaked bugera 333xl. Anyways im glad this worked out. one dude gets a great amp at a great price. one dude gets a second chance at finding his "dream" amp, (which may be a dream). ~mike~

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-uh9jSQ2CU my playing sux. And i could have dialed down the treble. Finally the camera reallllly sux sound wise. But yeah. It sounds great in the room. It shall tide me over till i get my dream amp. For now , paying for eye surgery will be my main focus. ~mike~
