I'm fortunate enough to own both amps. My current setup is two-sided. On the left is the Mark VII head with a Mark V:90 combo and the Head-Track, sharing the combo speaker and a Mesa 1x12 ported C90 cab, with my time-based effects on that side. On the right is the TC-100 head and a Fillmore 50...

I have much the same setup these days, though instead of the Mark V:25, I have the Mark V:35, with the Mark V:90 and a TC-100 that I got about 6 months ago. I use the 90 for my time-based pedals (Eventide Factors) and run the others straight. I picked up a Head-Track that I'll use for the TC-100...

I got a 2-year old gently used 90 watt combo four years ago. I've had a Mark I/60/100/EQ since roughly 1975, brand new at the time. The combos are quite hefty in every sense of the word, but the tone... Three years ago, I also picked up the 25. The day after I ordered it, they announced the 35...

I use the 35 head with one or two Mesa 1x12 ported closed back cabs. Or with my 50-year old Marshall cab with those old 25-watt greenbacks. Using Eventide pedals in the loop, either a combination of Pitchfactor, ModFactor and TimeFactor or a couple of H9 Max pedals. Incredibly versatile amp that...

I just loop it through the handle so it's coming in from above, rather than below. Works flawlessly for me in every situation. I use that in both the 90 and 35 watt versions.

The 25 and 35 don't have the switchable effects loop that the 90 has. If you get into the JP-2C, the new TC-50 and TC-100, those all have midi switching capabilities that include channel, loop, reverb, solo control. I have both the 90 and 35, and I keep the loops active all the time...

Thanks!! Glad they work. I find the same thing at really early hours of the morning - or what we call peak evening hours!! I'm usually using the 10-watt setting at home, but it works in louder circumstances at 45 and 90 watts, and I also adjust the gain in the same way. It's an incredibly...

I know what you mean about too much going on. ****... I should mention that the EQ settings are those fractions up from the center point, rather than the bottom. Nothing in my curve dips below 0. There are times when I might change over from sliders to preset at around 1:00 for a still slightly...

Niiice!! A fun evening indeed!!

Extreme mode. T-1:00 M-9:30 B-12:30 P-11:30. I'll run the Gain at around 10:30 or 11:00, with the Master at around 9:30, all in 90-watt, or if that's too much, 45-watt pentode. If I bring in the GEQ, it's a modified V, with 80Hz about 3/4 of the way up, 240Hz around 3/8 up, 750Hz flat, 2200Hz...

I generally use Extreme mode with no GEQ for that purpose. Bright switch on or off, depending on the room. I use the Mark I mode for heavier gain and for most of my leads, and I'll bring up the gain on Extreme mode to get a really nice Clapton live Cream sort of tone. For gigging, I'll use all...

I have both a 90 combo and a 35 head. I'm using an additional Mesa 1x12 V30 ported cab on the 90 and 2 Mesa 1x12 C90 ported cabs with the 35. My usual modes on the 90 are Fat/Mark I/Extreme, with Fat/Extreme on the 35 if using it alone, but I'll mix those up when using both amps together. I keep...

I also use Mark I mode as my primary lead mode. At home, running 10 watts, it's pretty cool, but in a band setting at 90 watts, it's pretty spectacular. I run the gain at around 2:00 or 3:00, treble and presence around 3:00, bass and mids around 9:00. The GEQ is sliders, set in a modified V...

BluzCruz, like you, I'm a hyphenated-rock, rather than a metal player. I have the V combo and the V:35 head. Love 'em both. They're just different enough with the different power tubes and they play well together. Here's the thing on the 90. When I gig, I use all 3 channels (Fat w/contour-Mark I...

I found my Mark V didn't like the Classic 57+ in the bridge of my 2007 SG3. It was OK with my old Nomad 55, but complete ice pick with the V. I replace the pickups with DiMarzios, a Tone Zone in the bridge, Norton in the middle and Air Norton in the bridge, all wired to switch from series HB to...

I have the opposite of Michael's. A Mark V combo (with a 1-12 widebody closed back extension) and a Mark Five:35 head with a couple of the aforementioned widebody closed back cabs. Two really great amps, and they sound huge when I run them together, either clean or dirty. The 35 also sounds...

I'm using Eventides in the loop - PitchFactor->ModFactor->TimeFactor. They sound great and there's absolutely no difference in the tone, whether I have them in or just choose to go straight amp. Same in the 90 watt combo. Best effects loops I've ever used, just completely transparent.

I bought a 25 the day before MB announced the 35 so I was able to play the 25, send it back and get the 35 head. I like the additional headroom on the clean channel, and the 35 is a bit punchier. Both are incredible amps. I also have a 90 combo and running the two together is amazing. I use...

I'm using both the 90 combo with an additional 1x12 widebody ported C90, and the 35 with 2 of the widebody porteds, 1xC90 and 1xV30. I also will use the 35 in my practice area with an ancient Marshall 4x12 with 47-year old Greenbacks. Love both amps, and I just picked up a Radial Twinline so I...

I run Send->ISP Decimator->Eventide pedals (PitchFactor->ModFactor->TimeFactor, all set at line level)->Nova Reverb->Return in my Mark V combo and there is absolutely no change in tone. Same with my Mark Five:35. I have the level set at the notch at noon on the combo. It's an incredibly...
