Just got back from my Mesa Dealer talking abotu the Mark IV

[fpoon]

Ha! I just remebered when I was in some guitar store I asked if they had a Mark IV in stock (this was when I was first learning about tube amps.) The idiot told me that Mesa Boogie stopped selling the Mark IV a while back. Now what the hell kinda idiot says that.

Definitely let Mesa know about this, that guy is killing sales needlessly for them and certainly knows dick about their product line.

Sounds like a typical Guitar Center salesman.......

R2 w/ a tubescreamer, less gain, but still has balls.

Avoid those big box stores if possible and find that neat little hole in the wall place where the guys know their sh!t!!!

That's the weird thing is this guy owns a small shop and carries only high end stuff in there. He only carries tube amps and high end guitars. My guess is he just hasn't spent much time with the Mesa's since he openly says he loves Marshalls.

I would definately let Mesa know about this. I know back in the day they were very selective as to who they would let represent their products. The markIV is no good for metal???? This guy is either retarded or on crack, but it really just sounds like the same old service (non-service) you get at the guitar world type places. You have to go into these types of stores with the knowledge of what you want before hand, because the salesman will just sell you anything and they don't know squat about their own products.

I remember guitar center in Hollywood was full of these types of idiots.... you cross the street and walk into Hollywood customs (I think that was the name) it was totally different. Those guys new their stuff.

Can't go wrong with the Xpression for $300.00. Works like a champ and very transparent. I have not tried the G Major though. I decided on the Xpression after reading the reviews.
