Much appreciated! I think this depends a lot on what you're listening on. I sound check on buds or bluetooth speakers, so it will sound most how I heard it on these types of devices. Definitely don't believe your ears on laptop speakers on you phone speakers!

Straight from Mike B:

I recently picked up a Mark III 1x12 Combo, with serial 154xx, 7/1985, so it's relatively early for the III. It does have the III transformer, not PT105. Still sounds killer! This amp has a "C+" hand written above the power chord. My local amp tech, who is Boogie certified states he has seen...

This would be an awesome mod for a C+!

Here's a few more, wanted to keep them all up top by just editing the "Placeholder" post I made much earlier, but I don't see an option to edit.

The Mark VII is absolutely killer for just about anything you could ever want. They did an incredible job with it. What appears to be Randalls last amp, they took the extra time to get it right and it absolutely paid off. I'd put it up against just about any amp out there. Just wait until John...

🔥 ! Still no idea if I'll keep it or not, need to spend some time comparing it to the Uberschall

I had Serial #8484, 12-81, HRGX, X-101 Transformer, RP9C Preamp board. It was sent to Mike B in 2023 for the Loop Mod and was fantastic. Originally an Imbuya 1x12 Combo, now in a white SOB Headshell (when sold)

Hey, I tried to trick folks 😅! I think it really depends on what you're listening on how the amp characteristics truly show. I typically sound test on buds & Bluetooth speakers. I need to get some better studio type headphones, the AKG's that I got are super comfy, but not very good for nitty...

Long story short, I recently snagged this Mesa headshell (Mark I). It was advertised as being for a Mark II/III/IV. I asked for a return/refund since it was significantly not as described. Seller refused. Reverb stepped in and gave a fair solution, so I kept the shell. Once I took all the time...

I liked each of them for certain riffs lol, they're both absolutely bone crushing amps!

I finally snagged a gnarly Recto and put it up against my Mark IV B! Dialed them in kinda close and tried to trick everyone :) Which is which?

The boss cs-1 definitely helps to further remove spikey tones both on the high and low frequencies and seems to improve not clarity IMO, definitely worth checking out!

Before snagging genuine EQF-2's the Presonus was my favorite PEQ! I agree they are incredibly versatile for far more tonal options, even vs most other PEQ's out there, especially for the price. I no longer use any high or low pass filters, I'll typically use my BOSS CS-1 Compressor up front...

For this video you're hearing 8 G12T-75's with vented voice coil from 1984 & 4 V30 from 1994

Appreciate the reply! I used an ESP/LTD EXP-200 with EMG 81 for this video, strings that are period correct for Papa Het etc. That said, you won't get to the justice tone with any single PEQ that I'm aware of. There is some overlap in the modifications to the frequencies, which compounds the...

This was requested by a few folks shortly after they found out I had two PMEQ's from Master Effects, so I had to make the video comparison! What say you?

Recently Tim from Master Effects reached out to me and said he saw my first video where I compared his original PMEQ to the Aphex EQF-2, which he is emulating how the EQF-2 was used on Master of Puppets with his PMEQ Pedal. He asked if I would compare this new revision to the Aphex EQF-2 as...

Much appreciated! I have learned that it really depends on what you listen on if they sound good or not haha. I recommend listening on Bluetooth speakers or buds. That's what I sound check on, so that's how I'm dialing in my tone, monitors, or flat responding headphones will sound more flat...

Since Kirk was playing on a VII with Rick on that recent video and I recently grabbed some Aphex EQF-2's I couldn't resist trying them out together. What say you? Where's the Mark VII section by the way? Haha, these are fantastic additions to the Mark Series IMO! I recommend listening on Ear...
