I was just jamming out a little on it and all of a sudden all of the gain disappeared from the lead channel. I still had my volume but it was completely clean. I switched over to R1.....fine R2.................fine back to lead.........still clean. I turned it off and went upstairs. came back...

I went from a III red stripe to a IV(A) myself. I had never heard a IVB that I liked as much as my III but a friend of mine scored an "A" combo in really good shape for cheap and he just couldn't get a long with it (true marshall guy to the bone) so I checked it out, and it sounded so close to...

you should try some KT-77's in there. give's you the best of a 6L6 and the best of an El34. I tried all 3 types in my Rectoverb adn by far, the KT-77s sounded best. glad you're digging it. I constantly have a debate in my head on whether or not to keep my Mark IV or move it and get a Roadster...

killer cover as usual. I used to run my IV in A/pentode/Tweed all the time but I recently started running it in Simul/Full power and I think it sounds much crisper and sharper that way. both sound good just different.

I ran my Mark III like this and loved it. I don't have any KT-77's on hand right now, but I did try some El34's in my mark IV and did not like it at all. It added a "boxy" sound to the tone, so I switched back to all 6L6's. I need to get a pair of Kt-77's and give them a try, I really liked them...

you could also try KT-77's as well. I had them in my Rectoverb and I absolutely loved them.

I have a Mark Iv and a 5150 II, I would do that before getting a another 2 channel recto (had a black face dual for a while) the only Recto I would go for these days is the Roadster. (which I seriously want). the 550 suggestion is a good one especially if you're primarily a rthythm player they...

ya, right now I'm on my 4th one :roll: there is something about them I do like :P and I don't find the 5150 II mid scooped at all, just the opposite very mid heavy.

Awesome post thanks for taking the time to write it up !!! I guess I need to get my hands on a Tremoverb and give it a test drive.

Yes I 've already got a mark IV. I find myself hardly ever firing up the 5150 II anymore. vitors statement " I can do what a Roadster does on my TOV, but not the other way around. " is what I'm asking about here.

What does the TOV give that the Roadster doesn't? oh and thanks for all of the info in your post. I'm not much of a chugga chugga guy, I'm much more of a shredder (wannabe) I play a lot of lead but I do play some 7 string stuff (nevermore, Dream theater etc) so there is that to take into...

Besides a akick *** high gain lead channel (which the 6505+ does really well) is maybe some versatility? the clean on the "+" is definitely better thatn the straight 5150 but it still sucks compared to my mark IV or the Lonestar clean. I think the "roadster" may actually be the amp that I'm...

ahhhhhh I got outbid on it anyway so no Tremoverb yet. :cry:

Hey guys, currently i have a 6505+ head and a mark IVA. I've been gasing to try a Tremoverb for quite a while and now I may have the opportunity to score one, but I'm wondering how much different the gain structure will sound compared to the 6505+? My Mark IV is not going anywhere I love that...

I went from a III red Stripe to a IV"A" and couldn't be happier. If I didn't already own a IV I'd own a V. I tried one a while ago and really liked it, but since I just noodle at home these days I can't really justify dropping $2,000.00 on something I really don't need. I 'loved the III I had as...

I use a THD Hotplate with my mark IV 100% of the time I use it. No problems so far ( this is going on for over a year now and it's an "A" version)

Holy Crap!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Looks really nice! George is going to get some of my money at some point. I want to convert my mark IVa combo into a head, I've just been to swamped lately to get around to it.

I had the same experianece in my mark IV, which really surprised me because in my recto it sounded great.

I'm wondering because I have a hotplate and a volume pedal, and I'm wondering if the volume pedal in the loop will work as well or better/worse than a hotplate will. I know the "mark IV' has a great master volume and sounds good at lower volumes yada yada yada, I find all tube amps sound...
