Anyone come across any just absolutely ridiculous deals lately?

Ya know, I think the only Mesa amps I could buy w/o hating myself would be another Stiletto, or a Studio Pre (maaaaaybe a clean Dual Rec). I've never played a Mark amp and I just don't know if I could justify one for some reason.

My only experience with a Mark was a Mark IIb combo that I owned. dialing that thing in consistently was like trying to decode hieroglyphics. I'd get it to a place where it sounded pretty good, and then the next time I went back to it, it sounded like hot garbage.

That whole experience has soured me on any Mark series amp.

My Studio Pre was a huuuuuuge pain to tweak, or should I say attempt to tweak. It had the graphic eq on it, and something along the lines of the eq knobs didn't work like traditional eq knobs....damn Randall Smith. Anywho, I would like another go at one, but Mesas just aren't really my thing.
