My band Howitzer just finished mixing 3 songs for our latest demo - I used a Mark IV, and a Bogner Uberschall, Both with a mesa Standard cabinet, in the studio - Im really happy with how the combination chunked on the recording - Check out the Revelations intro - I love bass in my tone!
The bogner was dialed in a little cleaner, and with more bass (it has more than the Mark, by far!).
For leads I used the Mark IV exclusively, through a bogner cab, the g12t-75 celestions really helped out the Highs of the V30's, In fact my next Avatar cabinet will be setup the same way!
Other points of interest - The only guitar I used was an LTD ec1000 with EMG-81's. Im really happy with the sound in that respect, even though I have recently switched to Passive SD's. I also used a Dunlop wah - the Zakk Wylde model (the extra sweep makes me happy!) swept forward in Live To Fight, and I used it to double the 2nd solo in New Blood.
Anyways -> Comments, questions, flames? Download the songs, and play them on a good stereo please - The myspace player is **** for bass response!

Id like to thank everyone on this board who helped me out, my tone ear, and playing have improved by leaps and bounds, and you all helped me tremendously!
