I also live in Indiana and I have to say that humidity has a big effect on a lot of things but I also wonder about the draw on the electric grid because it seems like my amps sound better after 9 pm and sound like crap when it’s scorching hot. I have no proof but just my observations. North...

I I have never tried a rat. I have been considering a rat pack for my Marshall rig so I can slam some obituary riffs. It’s never been on my radar but I think I can get some interesting Death Metal tones with it. Or maybe a regular rat I think you can get one pretty cheap.

For the money if you are in HIGH GAIN Territory NOT EDGE OF ELDERLY BREAKUP OVERDRIVE. The Sd-1 is probably the best overdrive pedal mxr custom bad *** od is probably 2nd but I feel like they are the same pedal but the bad *** has a 100hz control which can be helpful.

You probably can do it with 1 if you use an Emg 81 bridge and take your time dialing the amp in very carefully but the emg is the biggest thing and you have to get the bass right not to flubby and not too thin. That is the guitar tone that all thrash tones are compared to. It’s like the inflames...

this did not happen on my Mesa mark v but it did happen to my peavey. I had the speaker cable to close to the plug in and I thought for a couple days days that I ruined it but once I moved the cab over it sits on it quit it really could be something dumb.

You are on the same page. I read these people posting about how the mark amp is not a good choice for metal it has a lack of aggression and my opinion is why in the world do you want high gain for edge of breakup or clean tones? Why doesn’t Mesa do any interaction with James Hetfield or mark...

I really like the mark v but it does need some refinement all the snobs that say it doesn’t need anything obviously don’t watch rig rundown or read about what your heroes are using to get the sound one of the most interesting articles that guitar world ran was the drawing of the artist touring...

I don’t know that Hopkins but if his amps are anything like his you tube videos in real life they seem like they are cut from the same material as my dreams. He really is talented.

I will probably get booed when I admit what I use in front of my mark v. guitar, tuner, drop, compressor, sd-1, then noise suppressor. The loop has mxr 10 band eq and bbe sonic maximiser. I don’t always run the compressor but makes the lamb of god sound possible.

Mark v owner here I do love it but I must admit that day 1-180 were very underwhelming. Once I learned how to dial in a mark series amp life is so much better. But if I was saving up money for one I would probably just go with the VII. It’s not that much more money and it’s refined or updated...
