Apologies if this has been asked before but I'm considering getting either a MkIII or a MkIV but can't decide between them. It seems to me that the MkIIIs are more revered for their tone while the MkIVs have a more Hi-Fi tone but are more versatile in terms of switching, control, etc.
Is this a fair assessment ? Can any MkIII tone be coaxed from a MkIV ?
It's interesting that on YouTube most of the MkIII videos are by guys playing blues, rock, pop, etc. with killer tones ranging from clean through edgey to fluid, while the MkIV videos are mostly by metal guys playing full-on distortion stuff. I don't really understand why this is.
What do the folks out there think ?
I should say I've been playing for 26-odd years and am playing covers ranging from country through funk, soul, pop to rock so I want this amp to cover a lot of ground. Thanks.
