    Thinkin of getting a Mark V - Combo vs Head

    The Combo for many manufacturers is typically a lower wattage different amp, not so with Mark V. It is the exact same amp front and back panel as Combo or Head. It can run a stack just like the head or you can bring it to small simple easy gigs with the 1 speaker. I dont care what it looks like...

    New Mark V, why does it sound so bad?

    Keep at it you bought a great amp.I had some tube issues with my new Mark V too. It took me some trial and error to get all good tubes in all the right places but after that it is the best amp ever and have had zero issues for over a year now. I have had 2 other Maverick and Dual Rec. with zero...

    Still Feedback issues at band volumes with new tubes

    If you unplug the guitar and the amp is still feeding back then it is most likely your amp feeding back but your guitar could be as well. If it only does it when the guitar is plugged in then it is your guitar. Are you standing too close to the amp while it is cranked? Also, as many have noted...

    What Cab should I get to compliment the Mark V?

    Portability and tone the rectifier 2x12 cab is my choice. The person who said "mesa boogie builds their cabs too good" was correct. You can always put other speakers (I prefer V30's or C90's) but you will not find a better cabinet in my opinion than a 4x12 or 2x12 mesa

    Problems with the Mark V so far?

    UPDATE: ALL IS WELL Just for the record it seems that all of the problems I had were tubes, multiple problems with the original set of tubes. I had really never had tube problems before so I got all those years worth of no problems in 2 months. I can wait another 10 years for more. I got my...

    Dual Rectifier Retube

    JJ retube kit from Eurotubes (American company) worked fine for me. Just the regular kit not any of the hybrids or specials. Although if you read reviews there are many ways to skin the cat on this. To say the regular retube kit from Eurotubes worked fine is a huge understatement. What I have...

    The Heavier End of the Mesa Tonal Spectrum!

    Live rigs and techniques in recording are often times very different. For instance a small 1 speaker cab in the studio can create a huge sound. i read that Korn put one of those ciggaret pack amps in a junk drawer with a mik to get tone on one of their albums. Maybe this is not helpful on your...
