Other Mark One owners?

[SGephardt]

I'm curious who here has a Mark One, and more so, some of the early Boogie history.

I have a '77 Mark I. 100/60w, EQ, Reverb, Export power transformer, Koa cabinet with Altec 417-8H. It sounds great and is a piece of early Boogie history.

Got a '76 Koa/Wicker SuperSixty, no Verb or Eq. THE best sounding amp I have personally ever heard IMHO

Tone to the Bone!

Not playing much lately, probably going to put it up in the Classifieds.

I own a 1978 Mark I head 60/100 EQ that I was foolish enough to sell to a friend (thought I needed a Triple Rectifier). Several years later the friend owed me some money and had none to pay. I happily told him that I would "take back the Boogie instead of cash." The Rectifier has since been sold and I have said that the only way the Mark I will ever leave is when they "pry it from my cold dead hands".

Got a Hun-Ree-Graph 1x15 Black Tolex combo.

I have a 1978 100 watt Mark 1 (well they weren't really Mark I until Mark II came along) and have not had another amp since. Just this year I had to rewire the amp to replace a failing FETRON. This fetron was a discontinued transistor type device that was placed in some of the boogie amps of the time. Boogiebabies on this site helped me get this done. Now I have an ECC83 groove tube in V1 slot. Well it was great ... now it's even better restored to a full tube amp as boogies were to begin with. I love this amp.

In my search, trying to figure out what a fetron even was ... I found several good articles. This is a good overall example.
