    How old were you when you started playing guitar?

    Value of 1982 Mark IIB?

    I’d guess $800 - $1,000 max. Maybe even less, since it is bare bones and grill cloth was apparently changed. I’ve picked up some really nice Mark Series amps in that range the past few years. Mine were mostly original and all combos. Some had Simul-Class, reverb, and EQ, an either a EV or...

    Early Mark 1

    I’ll have to try the amp cranked at 7, 7, 7. My OD pedals are working well for my at home volume levels.

    Early Mark 1

    I am really liking the amp, I switched power around (matched sets inner and outer) tubes per Mesa’s comments and cleaned the reverb tank connections. I would think with a band, I would probably only need an OD pedal for leads. Nice edge of break up tones with a little volume.

    Early Mark 1

    I thought that the boost took the amp from 60 watts to 100 watts. I does sound better to my ears with it on.

    Early Mark 1

    Thanks, PM sent on my conversation with Mesa. Should I be worried about the missing resistor and take it to my tech? Thanks again. Grid

    Early Mark 1

    They said that it is a very early Mark 1. They stated a 1971 - 1974. Guess no good records back then.

    Early Mark 1

    Original cab, with new tolex and grill-cloth. I’ll try to get it more original looking.

    Early Mark 1

    This amp has pretty low gain. I realized it has a push-pull knob on Volume 2. Not sure what it does, maybe a bright switch, but I really don’t hear much difference with it pulled or pushed in.

    Mark IIC+ Question - HOW IMPORTANT IS SIMUL CLASS

    I’ve owned a bunch of Mesa Mark Series amps, but never a IIC or IIC+. I prefer the Standard 6L6 powered amps over the Simul-Class amps. I never cared for the Class A mode and I always considered the Mesa Mark Series sound to be from 6L6 power tubes. Just my thoughts.
