    Mark 5 EQ/Footswitch Problem - Could you have a look at yours

    I checked my amp out for you. If I have my EQ on each channel set to zero my foot switch will not turn the EQ on. My amp is newer it was built in October 2019. I don't know if your amp is older, maybe that has something to do with your issue but good luck

    I will be honest with you, I don't think you can fall in love with this amp unless you try to push it a little bit. Low-volume practice is fine, but you're going to fall in love with this thing if you crank it up By the way, if you do crank it up turn the fan on. LOL

    My fan is quiet as well. It doesn't bother me at all. But I will quote Mesa's advice out of my manual for my mark five. " The cooling fan is fitted with an on/off switch to allow silent running in the studio or late night practicing and lower wattage settings. We recommend leaving the fan on...

    I've been playing the heck out of this Mark five. But tonight I revisited my DC five, and I would like to share a video with you of a nice little off-the-cuff jam that I was inspired to do. https://youtu.be/kmZDWbZGwnA

    Cool little jam on the DC-5

    I recently got a mark five and I've been jamming the heck out of it, but I thought I would revisit my DC five tonight. And I came up with this cool little off the cuff thing. I was feeling lead channel. https://youtu.be/kmZDWbZGwnA

    With this amp I am primarily going for channel 2 and channel 3 sounds that I can get from it with the amp. On channel 1 I'll use the effects loop to add in a little bit of delay to sweeten up the sound. Or to throw a fuzz pedal on the front end for some bluesy type stuff. As far as switching...

    I don't have a Strat, but I do have the PRS silver sky and I do seem like this amp a little bit better right now with the single coils at the moment. Seems to me like you can dial in a really good sound with one guitar and then you switch to another guitar and you have to start tweaking again...

    I've been cranking this amp up today. Sweetwater is sending me two sets of matched six L6 tubes and I couldn't be happier!

    Back in bidniz.Here's what I did. Took the fuse out of my DC 5, switched out 5ug rectifier tube(per mace's story), checked each tube one at the time using the standby switch trick and found a bad output tube. When I get my fuses next week I'll go ahead and test out that rectifier tube...

    New boogie

    I paid $2200 before taxes. I went ahead and just ordered some fuses from Mesa this morning. So it'll probably be sometime next week when I get those. I got ten on the way. I might just take the fuse out of my DC 5 and change all the output tubes and the rectifier tube until then. I bought...

    New boogie

    Yeah I figured I should use the slo blo type. I was able to find a pack of four amp time delay fuses which Grainger says on its website are the same thing as slo blo. I did contact Sweetwater about it via email on Sunday and got a call from somebody there a sales engineer and he said he would...

    I also meant to say I have a spare 5u4 rectifier tube also.

    New boogie

    I would like to do that. I do have some spare tubes from when I had a dual rectifier and I have two sets of matched 6l6 tubes from a dual rectifier tube change out and that would be enough to troubleshoot this but I can't find any fuses in the town I live in. Specifically 4 amp slow blow fuses...

    ****, turned The output volume up to 11 o'clock. And blew a fuse. This one's going back to Sweetwater! This really sucks!

    The Mark V in general.

    I just got this amp a couple of days ago, and I can get lost in all of the different possibilities with this amplifier. Sometimes I hear Jimmy page tone, sometimes I hear Petrucci. It really does seem like the possibilities are endless with this amp, it can take you wherever you want to go...
