Definitely have to agree with you on that. I had the opportunity to play another Mk V recently and it truly sounded and felt quite different than mine. They’re complicated machines for sure, but these seem to have more variation from amp to amp than any other modern production amp out there...

This is a strange one. I recently purchased some Mogami 2524 cable and Neutrik connectors. All cables work in any cabling position on any guitar, through any amp, attached to any pedals, in any 4-cable position....except for the EFX Loop SEND on my Mark V 90 head. Really weird. I tested every...

Take a look at this thread as well.... I haven't tried yet myself, but it might be up your alley. So I'm not sure I want to go try the whole saturation mod thing just yet, but after reading the posts and seeing that others are also saying the same thing, I can at least know that there's...

Just wanted to provide a quick update for anyone interested. I ordered a couple AT7s and tried them following configurations: V6 only V4 only V7 only V4 and V6 V4 and V7 V6 and V7 I knew this would be complex to try and I wanted to simplify it as much as possible, so I came up with and...

Ordered the Jan Philips 12AT7, very excited (and hopeful) to try it. Thanks again!

I did notice that Ch.2 Crunch mode packs more thump & full frequency punch than the Ch.3 IIC+/IV, and I've been running settings very similar to yours on Crunch mode, and it's indeed a very nice Rhythm sound! There is indeed more bass on IV than IIC+, perhaps I should have specified that...

Thanks for the insight! I had never played a Mark V before I ordered mine (no one near had carried or had them in stock), but had noodled on a few used IVs and other Mesas in music stores previously. IV does have noticeable more bass response than IIC+, just still no where NEAR Extreme. I did...

Thanks so much for the response and info! Interesting that you said Extreme mode is IIC+, not IV as stated in the manual, as I thought it had a more IIC+ quality of gain & tone. It seems insane to me that these issues are "normal" for the Mark V, but with the seemingly overwhelming success of...

Hey guys! Purchased a new Mk V 90 head a few weeks ago, and am playing it through a well-broken in 2x12 Recto Slant cab. When playing Channel 3 in either IIC+ or IV mode, no matter what I seem to do, they both almost completely lack bass response, ie: almost no full bass you can hear, or even...
