    Recommendations, Please: Line Level Low End Exciter/Boost in Pedal Form

    Hey all! Running a Mesa Mark V:25 into a Bogner 412st cab and it's absolutely ridiculous... just gorgeous (might swap out the V30's for Creambacks, but that's for another time). Got an oversized Vboutique cab with lovely Celestion Alnico Cream... also great by itself as I can adjust the EQ on...

    Lexicon LXP-1/5 Mounting Possibilities

    Odd question for any Lexicon LXP-1 or LXP-5 users: How do you rack/mount/shelve your units? I grabbed these two beasts up (and they are awesome), but as I think of ways to secure them, going beyond the traditional rack shelf (universal or the original Lexicon shelf) I was wondering if there's...

    Power Amp Sims

    Hey all! Experimenting with all my gear and contrasting/comparing my ISP Stealth Power Amp with the power section of my Mesa Mark V:25 (and every mode on every channel sounds wonderfully different). Pumping my ISP Theta Rack Preamp into it and it's glorious. Switch back to the ISP Stealth...

    Did I just kill my speaker? :(

    Hey all, Wiring up some newly acquired speakers in a 4x12 and as I was sliding on the connector to the terminal, it bent a little and popped out the little wire connected directly to the speaker cone... I carefully re-inserted it into the hole that existed, but there's no sound... Did I kill...

    Mesa Mark V:25 - 12au7 in V5? Or bad idea?

    Hey... got an extra 12au7 and wondered if putting it anywhere in the Mesa Mark V:25 would be a bad idea, or just stick to the 12ax7's... V5? I threw it in the reverb slot (v4) and effectively the reverb just disappeared... Just curious...

    Hey all! I got this beast in a trade, and it's playability is as fantastic as my other two DK's... Anyone have this orange beast and what sort of mods have you made to it? Definitely going to swap out the pickups... If I do JUST the pickups, I'd throw in an EMG Rev Set white, with gold...

So, experimenting and having a blast... running my ISP Technologies Theta Rack Preamp into the power section of my Mesa Mark V:25 and having a BLAST swtiching between not only all the modes in each channel, which offer up slightly different character, but with the wattage switch, it's...

    A Cover of a Cover of a Cover of an Original!

    https://adammclean.bandcamp.com/track/the-way-home-vox My drum buddy Trey, who lives half-way across the country from me, decided to do a drum cover of Eva Under Fire's cover of Journey's "Separate Ways." I loved his version so I had him send me the drum tracks so I could shit all over the...

    Help Identify a Cab, Please!

    Hey all! I recently acquired a gently used Mesa Mark V:25 and LOVE IT. But figured I should honor this amp appropriately and instead of using IR's and studio monitors, that I should give it a proper cab. Traded some stuff for a lovely, seemingly well built, 2x12 that so far only has one...

    Mesa Mark V25, Power Amp Sims or Load Box?

    Haven't done a demo yet, but worry not, it's coming! LOVE these H2A's! Holy crap! The EMG Revelation Set was the first passive pickups I've tried in YEARS... love 'em. Low output alnico 2's and you really have to dig to get some bite out of them, but that makes them oh so fun to play... Was...
