..I am addicted to the clean channel, which can be overdriven to hell and back  in 10 watt/variac/tweed setting-it is amazing how well it breaks up-really, if you like using the volume knob(and I do..), this setting is addictive-bloomy clean to Texas mean(funny how Boog is thought of by so many as a metal amp...it does the metal, but so much more)

Aah! THAT ONE  :D! Thanks!

Very nice.  8) Sounds very versatile. I love a good clean tone too. What pups give you your favorite clean tone with your new amp?

Congrats! NADs are the best!  :lol:

I do see a small brand preference there.

So now you have the V, still eager to keep the other Marks, or do you think about letting some go?

How are the additional EQ functions, very useable or just redundant gimmicks?

so far,I have only played Reb's thru it..it rocks
-yes,Mesa has won me over-i am a Mark series man
-I will keep others no doubt-the V will be a gig monster while the others stay under lock and key
-the eq presets are very flexible -I like it because you can get more out of the 3 channels(use a preset for chan 1/dial in a custom eq on the 5 band for chan 2/preset for 3...)
-the different modes really change the voice of the channel-it would be perfect IMO if you were able to change modes via footswitch, but I dont know how possible that is under the hood...
-its not a clone amp-its got its own mojo , and if you like the Mark series, this is a must have IMO-the extreme setting reminds me of a mix of rectifier and mark-40% REc...60% mark....a great modern tone-

and does it nail the C+?....it passes the blind taste test! I a/b'd yesterday, and it was almost dead on/considering the diff. transformers,tubes,etc..I was pleased at how it copped the lead channel on a C+
