If my amp doesn't have a second master, for volume I use an eq pedal. For more gain I'll use one of the higher gain channels on my amp, or for a pedal, a ts-9 or an old are always on your board, along with a few others that come and go
The HW cabs are a clone of a 1968 Marshall cabinet. The back is birch, thry have metal handles, no cab corners etc. I have a B cabinet, and I also found that heritage g12h-30s to be a. It bright sounding for my amps at the time. But they are amazing after broken in and with some volume...
Both sounded great to me. I probably prefer the mark IV, seemed more clear, seemed easier to play. I've owned both. And think they're both great amps. Thr mesa will cut better in a band situation I MO.
If you're used to the lead tones, and love the lead tones of a Mark series amp, you're probably not going to be all that impressed with the SLO. I've had two, and while I think they're a great amp, I laugh when I see the guys saying it's the greatest amp ever made. It may be for them... but...
I've had the combo for about a month and a half and I love the little thing. I've owned 4 of the original 100 watt, and 3 of the 50, but it's been 6 years or so since then, so I'm probably a little dusty one memories, but this little amp delivers. It can get loud, my bass player jokingly...
The Marshall 20 watt jubilee head or combo are pretty damn nice as another option. New are about three same price as the used amps you're looking at. Or the street rod. You said you were wanting lower wattage.
Great video, was it hard setting up the volume levels of the amp, vs the models in the ax8? When you run models and want to turn up your sound, will you have trouble getting the amp and model sounds matched? Different shows require different volumes, will that be an issue? Thanks!!! This...
+1. I've owned a couple of Mark IIc+ and they're one of us favorite amps ever made. I've also owned quite a few Mark III and mark IV, and I like them as well. Except R2 channel. I hate that channel. I also thought the 2nd channel sounds more like an original, more open and less...
I bought one a year or so ago, and for practice at home, I really think it's about perfect. Plus you can use the auxiliary input to play a song though to practice with. Crazy good at super low volumes.
