you need a mark 4. great vesatility. great clean channel. great hi-gain. great lead tones. metallica used a mark2c+, but those things are vintage and rare. however, the 4 is voiced extremely similar to the c+ and will nail those tones very closely. itll also give you vai tones kinda things witht the lead channels.

Hey all. I'm new to the forum. Long time boogie user.

If you're looking for a heavy sound, I use a Strategy 400 with a peavy (yes, Peavey) Rockmaster preamp. No sonic maximizers, no effects racks, just a preamp and power amp. The sound is huge and if you're a working musician, you'll have all the power you'll ever need. For an example go to;

listen to the free song demo bits and you'll agree.

thats an amazing deal!! if iwere you id take that immediately. 800!! those go for close to 2000 new. i assure you, if you buy this amp, spend a month with it dialing in good settings, you wont be dissappointed. it covers all ground without sacrificing tone, and puts the mesa mark on the sound.

check out enter sandman2

I used:

LTD KH-602 with EMG 81/60
Mesa Rocket 44 with Mesa 2x12

And I had a Boss CS-3 and MXR 10 band EQ in the effects loop.

Recorded with a poor mic though.
