    Mark IV with Something Oily around Certain Areas

    I have a Mark IV 1x12 combo which I have had since around 2007. Purchased it new. I have noticed an oily like substance that is appearing around certain areas like the switches for Class A/B - Class A, the Triode/Pentode switch and some areas around the EQ. Don't know where this is coming...

    Can any new 'Lonestar classic' owners help me ?

    WHEW! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!!!! I found the same screw in mine and wondered if someone before me had been in the chassis. This forum rocks.

    Mark IV or Mark V

    That's what they call Mojo! When you can't explain why. :-) For me there was sweetness with the IV that wasn't there with the V. But at the end of the day, I wish I could justify keeping both. Plus I was comparing a Mark IV combo with a 1x12 extension closed back Boogie cab to a Mark V head...

    Mark IV or Mark V

    Sure to get cheers and jeers here with this one. I have owned a Mark IV combo 1x12 since 2008 and recently (last year) bought the closed back 1x12 extension cab for it. A friend of mine purchased a Mark V head and 2x12 closed back Rectifier cab. It sounded so good I had to buy one, and the only...

    Poor credit is not the rating they have. Their rating is "good". GC has excellent relationships with most all of its vendors, especially guitars and amps. From boutiques to giants. Blog posts written by someone who knows someone who's friends with a guy who used to date a door girl at GC is...

    Mark IV Combo and Extension Cabs

    Quick question ... I recently purchased a Mark V head and a Rectifier 2x12 closed back combo at 8 Ohms. I also have a Mark IV combo. The idea was to sell the Mark IV and keep the V, but after a month and a half rehearsing and gigginge with the V, I've comoe to the conclusion that the IV is...

    No. All it takes is someone working in the industry to know this. I do. I have for sometime. GC could not survive in a speciality retail market like this if it didn't have good relationships. If Walmart pisses off a towel maker, no big loss; they carry products across many different categories...

    Mark V Head Channel Switching Lag Time - Volume Fade

    I spoke with Boogie and they said that is normal with the V. Fortunately this dones't show up too bad live in a band situation with everyone else playing and covering it up. My Mark IV definitely doesn't do it all. I love the V, but when it comes to just an amp, I'm beginning to thing the IV...

    Tube Call Out... What Other Tubes Have You Used for Your Amp

    Thanks Don. What I meant to say were tubes within the tolerances of Boogie's fixed bias.

    Tube Call Out... What Other Tubes Have You Used for Your Amp

    Just a quick question here. When you have re-tubed your Boogie, what other tubes have you tried? Have you had any problems with the 'auto biasing' when you have used non-Boogie matched sets?

    Awe the mandatory minimum stocking levels. It's amazing they're (boogie) is keeping any dealers with the that these days. From what I understand, Boogies 'Dealer Agreements' haven't changed in a 100 years. They're still operating from the idea that they're the only boutique maker out there. Not...

    If you had literally $400,000 to 'play with' then why wouldn't you have gone through the vintage department of the GC hollywood, or worked directly with a platinum manager? Show me ONE music chain with over 10 stores where EVERY store and EVERY salesperson is 100% knowledgeable on gear. Not...

    Mark V Head Channel Switching Lag Time - Volume Fade

    Hey everyone. I just got a Mark V head with 2x12 closed back cab. When I switch channels, there's a very slight lag time between channels, more like a very fast volume fade from one channel into the other. Is this normal? It's a very fast thing, and you can't tell when playing with a band, but...
