    Mesa Mark V vs Mark Five:35 - Crunch+IV Modes

    On both the Crunch and IV Mode comparisons, the Mark V and Mark Five:35 have identical EQ settings and the volume on each was adjusted so that they were within the same ballpark of one another. For the phone comparisons, the amps were recorded with my phone resting on a window sill across the...

    Some food for thought on dialing in your amps...

    Something came to mind regarding how people dial in their amps and amp models and I figured I'd talk about it for a sec. A lot of times I see people complaining online about their amps "sounding bad" while they're afraid to stray to far from the noon/middle positions. Of course not ALL of the...

    FS /T: Mesa Mark V 90w Head

    Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Took a break from guitar for a few years after becoming a father and am finally starting to get back into music again. I traded for this right before my daughter was born, almost 5 years ago, and haven't even tried it until this week :lol: :LOL: It's...

    The trick to getting the Mark V right

    I love my Mark V 35 but it took me a while to realise how to dial it in (properly) for my personal tastes anyways. I guess in the beginning I was looking too much at settings that other guys used, especially with the older Mark series amps. One of the things guys like to do to tighten these amps...

    Dialing in the Mesa/Boogie Mark V (35)

    I've had the Mark V 35 head for about 5 months now. It's a pretty incredible amp but in my experience for studio work at least it's not easy to dial in 'right' (whatever that means for me haha). However, once you hit the sweet spot it sounds really good! I have a couple of observations about...

    Mesa/Boogie Mark V 35 high gain mode comparison

    Hey guys! I've been loving the crap out of my Boogie Mark V 35. When I was considering buying one I had my doubts about the low-end because some people online stated that the smaller MK V amps didn't have enough low-end oomph. I have a couple other EL84 amps and those sound fine so I just went...

    Anyone with both Grandmeister 40 and Mark V?

    I'm going to try moving back to an amp after years with amp sims (currently AT4 and Thermionik). In the hunt for something small and really versatile, I've been angsting over the Hughes & Kettner GM40 versus the Mark V 35. Most of my playing will be straight into the DAW, so if I get the Mark...

    I Did A Whoopsie - I Bought A Amp

    I did a whoopsie, i bought a amp. I needed cleans, my 6505MH is great for dirt, however i missed that clean clean. The 6505MH has a useable clean if you are playing metal and only need a few passages of cleans every so often. So, with money i saved almost a decade or so ago i had saved up, i...

    NAD - Marky Mark and the chunky bunch!

    PIC 1st! I sold my Mark V head a few years ago to fund my EVH stack+pedalboard which I needed at the time. Still got that rig and love it, but I missed the Boogie ever since. Recently I came across with this pretty little thing and had a guitar that I didn't need and voilá, a trade happened...

    Incoming NAD: Dream Come True.

    I have a Mesa Mark V 90W head on the way. This is a dream come true for me. While it's a little sad that I have had to sell my dear Mini Rectifier to get this, I won't be feeling too sorry for myself as I have wanted a Mark V for about 3-4 years now. Any owners on here? I'm super...

    Mesa Mark V

    Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Mesa Mark V in excellent condition. The footswitch is working just fine but a little bit crooked on one side, most likely incured during transit to a gig. Other than that, it's 100% functional. Modifications (if any): none Accessories (hardshell...

    Enlarge my … tones

    Hi there! I'm the lucky owner of Laney IronHeart 60w that I really love. I mainly play metal, heavy, hard but I sometimes play other styles to improve my skills. I love to get new gears to be able to find new tones. These days I'm looking at the Boogie Mark V since it seems to be a pretty...

    Mesa Mark V or keep my Peavey?

    Hey guys I've been dying for a new tone lately. I am currently using a boosted Peavey 6505+ which sounds awesome for rhythm but the leads sound like a buzz-saw and the cleans suck. The thing I'm worried about though is the fact that everyone on here seems to go back to their 6505 or 5150 later...

    Tube Amp Help!

    Hey everyone. I'm using a Mesa Mark V, and while jamming out with it, I was noticing a very strange hum, quite unlike the usual hiss from having pedals in the chain. I tried turning the amp off and on again, and shortly thereafter, the sound returned. After about a minute, my amp just went off...

    Best amp for my needs.

    Hey guys, first post here. I planning on buying a Mesa Boogie by the end of this year, I really like the tonal flexibility of some of them. The ones I really liked are: 1) Mark V 2) Roadster 3) Triple Rectfier The only problem is that I live in Brazil and we don't have a lot of authorized...

    New Rig Day (My Post Axe-FX II Rig)! Mesa & Bogner Content!

    So, for the last couple of years I have been an Axe FX user. I picked up an Ultra a couple of years back and it replaced my Marshall (JCM 2000 TSL 100) and my Mesa (Triple Rec and Roadster). I ran the Ultra through a traditional cab setup (Mesa 2x12s and an Art SLA2) and had a lot of fun...

    Which head for moderate/high gain?

    Hey, I've been looking at getting a new amp head for the band I've joined recently. The other guitarist uses a Fryette Sig:x, it has a really tight, dry sound. We don't play with a whole lot of gain, but I wouldn't mind having it on tap just in case. I've been thinking about the Mark V, it...
