New Mesa Boogie Mark amp?

[LCW]

Figured would start a new thread... some talk is flying aobut a new Mesa Boogie Mark amp.

Posted in Heavy Metal Amps & Pedals FB group...




And Mesa themselves posted this up today...
Maybe Mark VII = a new true II reissue... Maybe that's why the skipped VI... so they could make use of the 'II' in VII... sort of a play on roman numerals... Like a Mark V 'II' ???

Hopefully it'll have midi like the JP2C

Never know, maybe they'll start selling them outside the USA again

I'm guessing thats why the chp shortage had a hand in delays, Probably wanted to include MIDI + Cabclone IR like the JP2C/Badlander.

Mesa Boogie Mark Authentic has arrived.

It will probably be USD 3,300 if it has the Badlander's Cab Clone IR and midi. But yeah, hold off on buying a Mark V until next week.

 

[KnightBrolaire]

depending on the feature set, this might sway me from buying a tc100.

 

[beavis2306]

Why bother reissuing the 2 with the JP2C already existing? Seems redundant to me

The Mark VI is the JP2C... just saying...

Maybe this will bring down the Mark V's used price tag... I'm not overly excited with this, but it's good to know things are rolling...

 

[Emperoff]

Whatever it is, it will probably cost like 5k in Europe

FWIW, this will supposedly replace the Mark V, not the JP2C. Both amps will continue to coexist.

With all the people who have already played this, I'm impressed there is not even a leaked picture anywhere.

That really isn't an indication of anything from Mesa other than a link to sign up for newsletters. I think there is a bit much being assumed here.

That being said, I am a huge Mesa fan; I have a Mark 525, Triaxis, 2:Ninety, Stowaway buffer, Recto 1x12 cabinet, and Subway Ultra-lite 2x10 bass cab. A new Mark series amp sounds intriguing. I really don't know how they'd outdo what they've done with the Mark V 90 watt head though.

Like who?

Where are you getting that someone has played it?

Anyway,

There's a lot of smoke about a new Mark amp. While that screenshot is a bit generic, I wouldn't be surprised if we get a new Mark series soon

Dude's apparently been in the know for awhile now. Not surprised no one else is saying much because Mesa tends to be super tight lipped about new amps. I think the only time they accidentally let the cat out of the bag was the Badlander.

On one hand, it's awesome if they release a new Mark series! On the other, the timing is terrible since I cannot really swing buying another amp right now.

I mean if Mesa posts a Mark III on their Instagram tomorrow, we will know something is really up. Yesterday was a Mark I, today a Mark II. If we go by a Tuesday release, we are on track to having a Mark VII on March 7, a Tuesday, like what OP posted.

Also, the last iteration of the Mark was the Jp2C in 2016. 7 years ago.
