Just scored a Mark IIB

[Ultron]

Fully loaded combo, for $750 shipped. I own a Mark III Blue stripe head, which I absolutely adore. I wanted the combo for easy transport gigs, and I've heard the cleans on it are amazing. I plan on eventually sending it to Mike B for the FX loop mod and healthcheck. Any recommendations, tube choices, and settings?

Yeah, MESA's STR-415s.

Don't expect it have a heavy saturated distortion like your Mark III.

But to me, I prefer the break up of Mark II, just like a Fender w/ an overdrive. Not most members' cup of tea on this forum.
