Mark III Blue stripe vs IIC+

[The_OD]

Hi all

How close does the Mark III blue stripe come to the IIC+ lead tone?

I am a happy IIC+ owner, but I hardly dare use it live. And now theres a Mark III blue stripe on sale for a reasonable price.

So I figured, if it hits the IIC+ tone fairly well, I coul buy it for live usage and leave the IIC+ at home for rehearsal and studio usage.

So please, enlighten me

As close as any other MKIII stripe, more or less. Bottom line is, it can sound similar, but the feel will be miles away (for the most) or kinda close enough (for a few). Its a different beast with similar blood lines.
