Ok, so to follow up my oscillation video, I dialed in some thrash tones and gave it a shot. Im not much of a player and this is basic AF, something I threw together this morning, but yeah plenty of gain without making it go into oscillation.

Sorry! Didn’t know of that was a thing, but no mine don’t chirp

Bump

Yeah so that’s not a microphone tube. It is oscillation. The reason I posted the video is because people have been talking about it. The video you quoted was a reply video where I was asked to set it like that, specifically those settings. Maybe check out the one before it. Again the settings...

No guitar plugged in and nothing in the loop. It still does it with the guitar plugged in and the volume down on it. A video was posted on TGP where someone tried extreme settings on his original IIC+ and got it to oscillate so it seems to be normal. Also here is a response I just got from Mesa.

That’s where I’m at. Realistically you don’t need input 1, treble and gain on 10, that’s way too much. So it works and I love what I get out of it without pushing those settings to that point so I’m willing to live with it for sure. I do wish that it didn’t have the oscillation but unless Mesa...

Well, so far I’m loving mine. Yes it oscillates at extreme settings but Mesa has warned this was possible on the mark iii, the mark iv and i want to say even the V. Several others have posted online that their originals do it as well. Seems to be a crap shoot as to which original models do and...

Fantastic shape, comes with all original paper work, FS pedal and box. Functions exactly as it should and sounds amazing. Willing to meet up to 2 hours from 28621 Elkin NC to avoid shipping if possible. Shipping would be roughly $125 for continental US. Thanks $2500 OBO

Got mine in today. Honestly sounds great. Never had a IIc+ but did have a mark III red strip that had the ++ mod. This seems bigger sounding and punchier but hard to tell since I don’t have them at the same time. Also I can duplicate the squeal that’s in that video. This is a design issue...

I appreciate this video, it at least shows it can do high gain. Guy probably doesn’t have a set up to record through a mic/pre/interface.

Yeah wasn’t Doug the one that pushed for his 60 watt non geq IIc+ to be the model they based the V off of, and it was a massive failure on that point. The IIC+ mode was small and extremely weak sounding. Maybe the issue is that they don’t give a shit about the metal community or what really...

At this point it has to be asked if Mesa/Gibson is trying to control how this thing is being demo’d with the settings. I find it hard to believe that’s how Kyle or Fluff would have dialed that in.

I don’t buy the idea that they cannot make this as good as the originals. Several different companies have made the SLO transformers I believe, and there’s not a whole lot of talk about how SLO’s just don’t hold up anymore. It’s just parts and if they match them that’s it. Schumacher is making...

This is a good question

I’ve had a mark III red stripe++, mark V and a mark VII. The VII shared a lot more with the III than the V for me. I found it to be pretty big sounding with a good punch, though I could always want more in that department. The V was totally anemic and lacked any low end that was really usable...
