Seriously didn't expect this. Also why did they skip Mark VI naming? Is the Petrucci model considered the VI?

I think I found the solution... So for the longest time I wasn't happy with the lack of low end on the Mark V's channel 3 especially on the MkIV mode. Found this pedal PdeQ - Presence Depth EQ It basically adds a resonance knob to the amp and wow what a difference it makes! It adds that...

I have this exact problem right now. I get a decent (not earthshaking) tone on my own. Then some of my buddies came to jam, and my amp just got lost, especially channel 3... I'm finding MK4 mode lacking a huge amount of low end. Like when I switch from Mk4 to channel 2-Crunch, my Crunch channel...

Which channel was this on? I'm finding I loose so much low end on the MK4 channel and not sure how to bring it back without the flub.

So I'm not sure I want to go try the whole saturation mod thing just yet, but after reading the posts and seeing that others are also saying the same thing, I can at least know that there's nothing wrong with my amp and that it's a sound / tone / eq thing. I started that thread suggested just...

Take a look at this thread as well.... I haven't tried yet myself, but it might be up your alley. So I'm not sure I want to go try the whole saturation mod thing just yet, but after reading the posts and seeing that others are also saying the same thing, I can at least know that there's...

Thanks man! I did a quick search before my original post but didn't see this thread.

Hey guys, I appreciate the input again. Tried playing with some settings last night including turning up the channel volume and lowering the master. Ch3 def still lacks the low I get from ch1 & 2. It's not bad on it's own but I notice it most when switching back from the other channels. I...

Thanks guys for the input. Glad to know I wasn't the only one who thought this. I'll have to try the different suggestions from here and see which works best. I'll definitely give this a try. I think my channel level is actually set pretty low and master turned up so I'll try switching it up.

Hey guys, let me preface by saying I absolutely love this amp (Mk V 90w). When I play on channel 3, mostly in MkIV mode on it's own, it sounds great. However, I feel that compared to channels 1 and 2, there is a lot less low-end in the sound even after engaging the graphic eq and boosting the...

Congrats man! Beautiful guitar too. Hope you enjoy it for years to come!

Sweet! Thank you!

I'm sure you've all seen this amazing demo of the Mkv 25 ft. Andy Timmons https://youtu.be/i0p-ks5xlnY Question is do these settings translate well onto the Mkv 90w version? Anyone here tried these on the 90w? Thx!

For metal, I find the MKIV mode on pentode and 90w to be the best sound. That being said I will switch to triode sometimes for smoother sound with less attack. The key thing for me is is the MKIV mode. I'm actually disappointed in the extreme channel. There is less gain, more bass and just...

Oh forgot to say in my last post. I went out and bought and installed new pickups after reading the stock ones that came with my guitar wasn't too great. Went from the stock Ibanez qm1 to Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB in the bridge and that made things quite better with the tones I'm getting out of the...

WOW bandit... Thank you for the detailed info. I can really tell you've spent a lot of time with the amp and know quite a bit about it. I'm looking forward to this weekend when I can sit down and continue my quest for tone with my Mark V. I really want to love this amp and the more time I...

Ah.. didn't think about breaking the speaker in. That's actually a great point as most speaker do take quite some time until they work as intended. I'll try your settings for channel 2 as well. I find my channel 1 sounds much more open and wider than ch 2 at the moment. Can't wait to hear the...

Got mine!! 8) 8) Had about 5 hours with it so far and from what I've played, im pretty happy with it. A couple of things though... how are some of you getting so much gain out of these? Especially in iic+ mode?? My gain is maxed and still only sounds crunchy at best.... I've seen videos of...

Thanks man! It's been a long time coming and a lot of debating but it was time! I decided on the head with the 1 x 12 open back wide body. How does it sound with the 1 x 12 you have? I'm not concerned about the weight as it won't be for gigging.

Thanks! Can't wait! I'll order up a cable in the mean time but still doing some research on these things.
