Hey

Im new owner of that amazing Mesa Boogie Mark IV head. If someone know what tubes that device have in stock straight to the factory ,when that amps was release? And second question if someone can put some pictures ,for all tube places where those are v1 v2 v3 v4 v5 what slots is lead channell critical gain stage slot? And what they do like v3 is reverb preamptube and so on.... And i want know those if i need someday replace some tubes ,then i know what they do and where they are. And all tube recommended would be nice too to know ,if someone have some experience all tube tests and im playing metal. And i must say that amps sound amazing ,it nice to be mesa owner :D

Hi Dimebucker,

The tubes could be any of several brands, if you could post closeup pictures of them, someone can probably identify them.

The manual has a "Tube Task Chart" showing the location and function of each tube.

The description of the tubes job (function) is in the manual in the section that you referenced. You want someone to write the same thing down for you? It's in the manual......
