Thanks for the replies. How does it stack up to vintage fender clean tones? Any particular settings or advice? Thanks

Does anyone use the Mark III as a clean platform and play through it primarily clean with some overdrive.

Does anyone use there amp for clean tones and blues? If so, curious how you think it compares to other amps that are known for great cleans. I feel most people think this amp is best for metal or hard rock only. Also, what setting do you find work best for blues with a strat or tele. Thanks

Excellent Condition, never left the house. Includes box. $85 Thanks

Looking to purchase a good condition Mark III Head. I can be reached at 781-858-3637

Thanks, I replaced the power tubes and the tone improved drastically. I replaced V2 preamp tube and I all improved things. I'm wondering if I should keep on going and replace the remaining 4 x preamp tubes. I'm also going to take it to a take to have the OT tested. Thanks

I have another update to my Mesa Boogie Express 5:50 low output/breakup issue. As stated earlier, I replaced all output and preamp tubes and the tone was great. I then had a rehearsal last week and the tone was great also, until after about 3 hours, it didn’t sound as clean. I starting checking...

Guitar Center sells a pair of 6L6 Mesa Power Tubes for $42 bucks. Each preamp tube is $18. I noticed Groove Tubes were even more. Not sure why.

I have a THD tweed 2 x 12 cabinet loaded with a pair of Celestion g12h30 70th anniversary speakers. They are 30w / 8ohm each, wired in parallel; therefore its an 8ohm cabinet with a total of 60w. The ohms will match using the 8ohm speaker jack on the head, so I'm good there. I just want to make...

I got more help from you and other forum members versus calling Mesa!

Thanks, that is what my ears hear also. I justed wanted verification. I guess somewhere I read you could turn the knob one way to create an up side down "V", /\ which I'm guessing woud result in more MIDS on a typical EQ. To my ears, regardless of which way you turn the knob, it just...

Good news to report... My tone is back! When I swapped out the 2nd preamp tube "V2", everything was back to normal. According to the owners manual V2 is 1st Gain Stage. I now have full volume capability and plenty of clean headroom. Thanks for the tip on the JJ 803s preamp tube. I will...

Thanks, I really hope that is it. The amp is 1 year old, but it is a floor model. I called Mesa and they said to change the power tubes first, and then go from there. They said the pre-amp tunes never have issues (strange). I will try all new pre-amp tubes. I won't argue that the Mesa tubes are...

Thanks for the reply. I called mesa and they suggested to swap the power tubes with new ones (i'm using the mesa tubes), which i did. Results are the same. I'm wondering if i should change the pre-amp tubes next. The other thing i want to mention is that i'm running my 5:50 head into a 2 x 12...

It could be my ears (and maybe I am starting to loose hearing), but I feel like the master volume on the 5:50 isn't as sensitive as it used to be. I also sounds that with humbuckers I get a slight breakup, which i'm not sure i had before at the setting I have below. When I play with my band, I...
