Man, compared to some here, my modest collection is pretty tame by comparison (although my wife doesn't think so 😁) JP2C Bogner 20th Anniversary XTC VHT/Fryette Sig: X Mezzabarba Trinity Friedman SS-100, V-1 Suhr PT-15IR Suhr Hedgehog Cornford MK50H-II

Can anyone share any methods to determine the authenticity of a MKII C+? I know to look for the "+" over the power cord, but beyond that, I pretty ignorant. Any help would be appreciated.

Up for sale here is a literally brand new JP2C. I bought this from Sweetwater last month (it was a return) and have since accumulated some unforeseen bills so this, unfortunately, has to go. The amp itself is in brand new condition; the pedal has a couple of nicks on the bottom portion...

I rarely play the amp at low volumes. The gain on channel 1 is set at about 11:00 and the master at about 1:00. I remember reading your posting regarding this issue. I have changed the V1 along with all other tubes. The noise only happens in Channel 1 and it is persistent regardless of how...

Hey All, I've had my MkV for several months now and am very pleased with all aspects of its tonal capabilities. I do have an issue that concerns me, however. I use Channel 1 for a sparkly-clean tone with minimal gain. I have noticed a persistent crackling noise from this channel when I "spank...

I do, duhhh! Tanks again!

Mucho Thanks, I'll check it out. If I still can't find it, I'll be back!! 8)

Can someone tell me where I can find the serial number on my Mark V. If it makes any difference, I just got it a couple of weeks ago (I don't know if they have changed the serial # since the amps introduction). I looked on Mesa's site and they said that it's on the same side as the power...

Generally speaking, there is not a lot of wear and tear on the preamp tubes, so the should last a good long time. If you satisfied with the tone you presently have, I would suggest just leaving these alone because changing these tubes could DEFINITELY change the character of your amp. If you...

Glad to hear it!! To provide an update, I will be receiving the last of my NOS/ANOS preamp tubes later this week. I also ordered a quartet of Winged "C" EL 34's because I wanted to get a bit more "snarl" in my lead tones (I do have to say that I LOVE the clean sound of the 6L6's. I hope I...

I am in the process of procuring some new tubes for my Mark V. Glad to hear the Mullard I61 worked well in the V1 position, as that is my plan as well. For the rest, I'm bought a selection of Tungsram, Amperex and a newer Mullard (1965?) and will experiement with these until I am satisfied...

Thanks for the input. I ended up buying two new ASW kts-60's for $200 each on ebay. I will let you know how they perform.

Hello All, I just got my Mark V and am wondering what is the best speaker to use in a 2x12 closed-back cabinet. I am not new to Mesa, having owned a Mark IV, DC-3, Express 5:50, and others. I play a fairly wide variety of music; mostly Classic/Contemporary Rock, but also modern blues, old...
