Post Your Rig! Must Include a Mark V.

I'm happy to start and then gawk at everyone elses sweet rigs.

What amp is that on the bottom? How does the V stack back to back with the IV?

The bottom amp is a Mesa Satellite that serves as a stereo power section for the Mark IV, badass set up.
Well, I won't be selling my Mark IV. I need more time with my Mark V to make a fair comparison. So far I am very impressed with the Mark V for the most part.

Recently got rid of the G -- realized I'm not into a ton of effects and picked up a Replica Delay.

Could you control the V with the G? Or did you need the gizmo.

Unintentionally took over the other thread, so might as well post here, too...



It's big but considerably less complex that the rack rig I've been disassembling/selling off to buy all the heads...

You could to a certain extent but not all of the functions of the V -- I never did set it up though. If I would have kept it I probably would have gone the way of the gizmo.

I just got a vertical 2x12 recto cab!! I must say that it sounds really good and the Mark V looks a little more majestic sitting on the v212 than my old horizontal 212!!

Totally agree, there's something emasculating about a rig that only goes to your knees lol.

LOL yeah, and seeing some of these rigs I am totally gassing for a 4x12 like you even though I don't have a vehicle in which I can transport it if I'm playing gigs. My little Mazda 3 can haul a 2x12 vertical but not sure about the 4x12!!

cheers,

Ya I'm rockin a 91 Sunbird that just wont die. The 4x12 is over 100 pounds right?

Yeah. I think it's 105 lbs. I don't know if my car's trunk can accomodate something with a 30" width. The 32" height is not an issue since the rear seat passthrough allows you to carry long objects.

I had a 94 Toyota Tercel till the beginning of this year which like your sunbird would not die at all (until some idiot crashed into it on the freeway)

I always thought I would get rid of the 4x12 because it is a complete pain in the *** to haul around (*barely* fits in the back of my sedan) so I picked up a couple of Recto 2x12s with the intention of selling off the 4x12. Never happened hah.

It does sound massive with the V, I don't see how people regard the Mark series as "boxy".
