Agreed. They are very similar it seems. Xtreme just has more gain stages. They are both very immediate sounding (stiff?) and loud.

Awesome, man! Would love to try one out, but the cost is a bit prohibitive for me. I quite like my setup, but do long for 4CM functionality...

Doing well, man! Still chugging away at this guitar playing thing with a Mesa as the basis of my tone. I've calmed down on the constant amp swapping since landing on the V:25. Yea, Mesa seems to pair their amps with the C90 and V30 for a reason. I'd like to try a Fillmore at some point as...

Matt! What's up, man? I've not tried to chase any Santana tones on the V25, but just wanted to say what's up! Glad you are still on the Mesa side of the spectrum. I'm sure the tones you seek are in there. The little V is a versatile little beast! Happy tone hunting

Price drop...

You could check eBay or the classifieds on here.

The F-50 widebody is still an open back so you'll prob want to compensate for the EL84s with a closed back or ported cab most likely.

You do know the V:25 has a CabClone built-in (as well as a speaker mute which acts as a load box), right? It sounds great running direct to my PC through my monitors. I actually think you would have MORE bottom end if you were to pair the V:25 with a closed back cab (compared to your F-50...

Still available...

I, personally, could never totally get onboard with the F-series' tone. I think the Mark tone is much more refined and toneful for my tastes at least. Playing one first would definitely be a good idea, but I bought mine based on clips on YouTube. It did not disappoint by any means. It is a...

Awesome!

Selling my TC Electronic Alter Ego 2. It is in excellent condition with box. $75 shipped/pp'd Not really interested in any trades.

Haha, placebo at work...

I rode up to a local Mesa dealer an hour away with a friend so he could demo an RA. I thought it sounded pretty good, and then we switched to LO (Blue) mode. Holy crap! That mode has so much mojo and tone for days! I could live on that channel and be completely happy. Glad it seems to be...

Woot! The board is faster than ever. Thanks, Ned! This is the only forum I participate on these days...

I dig my mini Recto 1x12 slant cab paired up with my V:25.

Sweet setup! I used to rock that head/cab once upon a time. Definitely puts out the goods. I'm content with my mini rig these days. A bit easier to justify...

One of my favorite cabs! GLWTS

I've had moderate success setting the Xtreme mode at super low gain for a "clean channel" if you keep the treble below noon as well. This was with my 245 which is the lowest output pickups I have. Xtreme seems to match up the best with the Crunch channel in volume/feel. Try it out and see...

Agreed. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
