Yes,but you must choose between the 6L6's or the EL34's (2 or 4),i think? It's not like the RoadKing,for ex. I would love to try simulclass...and the MarkV,of course!

Post by: AdamB on January 18, 2009, 07:07:33 AM: I'm pretty sure you can put 2 6L6's in the centre and 2 EL34's on the outside?

Post by: maverickf1jockey on January 18, 2009, 09:46:37 AM: It does sound nice but I'm not really going to give up the simplicity afforded by my current set up for it; far too many buttons.

yes, you can run 2 el34's in outer positions for the "mix" of class A and A/B-

Blimey, where are the other 57 knobs, buttons and switches? They must have hidden them round the back.

Post by: shaman on January 18, 2009, 05:45:00 PM: haa...this has the boutique thing going....6 knobs..simulclass power as well..very little on back of this one-I am betting this voice is present in the MK V channel two("Stiletto" like, if you are familiar with that amp)

Post by: Simon D on January 18, 2009, 08:39:41 PM: I have one thing to say about the Mark V. I want one.

Post by: Ratrod on January 19, 2009, 10:11:21 AM: Am I the only one who thinks the Mark V sound clinical?

Could it be it's a Jack of all trades but a master of none?
Title: Re: Mark V Vid
Post by: shaman on January 19, 2009, 02:03:36 PM: through a little camcorder, it def. makes it hard to tell...I own a few MArk amps, and I guarantee you in person they sound warm and cuddly...of course, they are versatile..and if you want clinical/cold, drop those mids and pair with emg's..!if the cleans are Lonestar-ish andMk IIC+-ish,look out!!check out Andy Timmons lately-bottom line, I will know soon :)
Title: Re: Mark V Vid
Post by: Roobubba on January 19, 2009, 02:27:58 PM: I'd be forever knocking the buttons when loading/unloading it in the car, then it'd take half an hour to find the setting you wanted again! I think I'm quite happy with my 5150-II for now :) Maybe in a few years if I have any spare cash, I might look towards one of these, or a Diezel, possibly, but that's way off for now :)

Does sound pretty nice though!

Based on that YouTube clip, all I'd be prepared to say is that it sounds like An Amp. Same goes for all YouTube clips.
