In my experience (which does not necessarily implies that I'm stating an absolute truth) the V-Twin Lead mode can produce a relatively Rectifierish tone - but the gain is considerably lower, I used it in conjunction with a booster to get that hi gain lead you're probably thinking of.
As far as it goes for the Mark-like tones, I don't think it comes even close to that tone.

If it had been as easy as buying the v-twin I would have skipped buying the Mark IV... I am still looking for Recto sounds though. Let me know if you have any success getting them from it. As of now, I am starting to look for a suitable Recto.
Hi, Russ
Getting a Recto really is the solution. If you want to save a buck and get really awesome cleans, get the Rect-O-Verb series II head. I currently have a V-Twin, and have owned a Trem-O-Verb and DC-5. The V-Twin does not do Recto, but it gets really close when you use the power amp output. Otherwise I think of it as a higher quality Big Muff.
