Dear Mesa Boogie Mates,
I would like to ask for help regarding my Mesa Mark 5 which I have bought recently second hand:
The toggle switch for the EQ on the amp for each channel has three options: 'On' - '0' - 'EQ FS'
Now my problem:
If the toggle switch on the amp is on the '0' position, the EQ can still be stwitched on and off with the footpedal.
Isn't the footpedal's EQ button supposed to work only in the 'EQ FS' position of the toggle switch on the amp?
Even the manual says that in the '0' position all the EQ is completely turned off.
If the EQ can be switched on and off with the footpedal when the toggle switch of the amp is at '0' WHY is there the position of 'EQ FS' on the amp's toggle switch??
The amp-tech of the Mesa Boogie distributor for Europe says that this is normal but the manual of the Mark 5 clearly says the opposite.
The all important question for me is: Does my Mark 5 have a technical fault?
There's no info on the internet and it sort of drives me crazy.
Would really appreciate any help!
Thanx a lot!
