New MkIV-A combo owner here w/pics!

[SurfGreenTele]

Hey everyone, I've wanted a Boogie forever and I just sold off some pedals and things and picked up a '92 Mark IV combo locally for $800. Has a road case, that's good for a hernia. Just needs a retube and has a screw in lieu of one pot shaft, but it's working beautifully upon brief testing with some random tubes I had laying around (only ran it in Class A, tweed mode so far). Will get some clips up when the new tubes come in and I can open it up more. I've got hours of tweaking ahead of me, and plenty of research to do around here.

Congratulations! Looks almost identical to mine. Enjoy it!

Shes a buet for 800. Looks alot like mine also - broken knobs and all.

I live in tweed class A. More than enough for most gigs.



welcome to the mahhhk side.

Welcome!

The MK IV is a beast.

Thanks everyone! I'm really thrilled about this...I'm thinking it will satisfy my amp needs (wants) for a long time.

Haha, excellent, is there a broken knob Mark club? I'll join. I haven't even cranked it yet, but tweed class A was already plenty for the gf to yell for me to turn it down...and she's used to me playing pretty loud when I had my Budda SD30.

A friend broke a knob on mine a long time ago. It was not that hard to replace. I think I remember Mesa mailed me the parts for free.

I'll probably give Mesa a call, is the lead drive pot easy to access, or would I have to remove some things above it? I might live with the screw if it's a pain to get to.

I am not sure .... it was over 10 years ago and I am not even sure what pot it was any more. I do remember it was in that general area and on the bottom row. It was not a difficult job or took much time.
