I do the same thing with an SD-1 on the Clean, but behind my Morley wah.. Acts like a 4th channel and provides a great crunch tone.

Thanks guys, I agree, absolutely love it and it has been very reliable. Petaluma is about 2.5 hrs from me, so I could always take it to the factory.

Looking for some opinions... Totally amateur player who was able to pick up a Mark V 90 head from Sweetwater probably 6 years ago for $2200. No gigging, amp is overkill for me, but it is awesome. I am concerned about long-term reliability, repairs, local dealers, etc. Should I be? Keep it...

I had a Transatlantic TA-15 back in the day... thought it had great cleans. Cool amp, wish I would have kept.

Very cool, looks totally factory.

I would like to try the grid slammer instead of the SD-1.

Interesting, I had not thought of the loop...going to try today.

Number of threads on this subject.... IMO, Mark V does not need any OD/Boost, except if you want essentially a 4th channel for the clean. This works really well, there are many choices. Boss SD-1 is cheap and sounds great. If you want a totally different non-Mark sound, you can use any type...

Vintage SWEET!! I had a 22+ back in the day...it was my first Boogie on the journey to my Mark V. Never had the wicker though (:

Very cool...I had a Princeton Reverb wayy back around 1977 that my Dad bought for probably $300, if that. Now they go for huge $$$ (if I had only known). Problem was I was a Zep guy and hard to do that with a Princeton. I have sold/traded so much s#$#$ over the years that is worth big bucks...

Read good things about the MXR....anyone use a Flux Drive in front on Mark V CH 1?

I should clarify...Mark V through 4x12 rectifier

Just picked up this SLO pedal for $180. Any opinions on running this through the clean channel rather than the SD-1?

Updated my pedalboard...turned out very clean.

Speaking of attenuators, has anyone used one with a Mark V? Obviously using masters and the main "Output" knob, and running on 10 watt gives bedroom volume, but I always feel I am not really "hearing" the amp. What about using a quality attenuator and running at 90 watt full bore?

Actually ended up returning the Blackstar. Just wasn't doing it for me.

Anyone use one of these buffers with a Mark V? In front of pedalboard or within effects loop? Thanks!!

I just picked up the beloved Boss SD-1 for my Mark V and have been very impressed. In addition to allowing for the "4th" channel through Ch1, it is really great in front of Ch2. I keep the drive setting fairly low (about 9:00). I Really resisted an OD pedal figuring I had more than enough...

QUESTION... I understand a boost needs to be in front and not in the loop. I am currently running a wah in front. Should the boost go before or after the wah?

I find myself on Ch 2 most of the time as well. Ch 3 for some lead.
