Mark V videos & recordings using el34s?

[ESP123]

I cannot find any videos of the Mark V head or combo with el34s. Does anyone have one or a recording of what it sounds like? I know what these tubes do to the sound. I have played them in many other amps but would like to hear them in a MV before I pick up a set.

Well, there are two songs - "The Voiceless" and "Indecisive Demon"- on my band's myspace page with a MKV (in MKI mode) equipped with EL34s.

very nice, those recordings sound fantastic. Love the riff writing style you guys have. Thanks for sharing. Since your using the Mark I on both of these songs, do you have an opinion of how they sound in Channel 3 with either IV or V? Also, do you like the cleans using the el34s?

thanks again for the link

As my amp is now equipped with SED "Winged C" EL34 I like the 3rd channel better than with Mesa STR447 which I had in the amp when I reamped the guitar, but Lesterpaul's MKI-mode setting (in the official MKV settings thread) still rulez.
Besides, a GE 5751 in V1 helped to get a modern grind to the distortion texture as well in MKI and Extreme.
The clean channel suffers little from the poweramp tube exchange - no problem for me.

Thank you for your compliments!

ok the sound isnt great but this is from a small pub gig we did last week, the guitar was firing straight at the camera so it kinda takes over but anyway...
