WTB : Mesa Mark III or IV Combo


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've got Boogie fever bad. Looking for a Mark III or IV combo, preferably with EV , but if you're selling please let me know what you have even if it's just the head.

I don't have access to this board or my home email from work, so please reply to:

I 've done lots of dealings with HFC members who can vouch for me.

Thanks,

Gary

there is a DC5 @ Tempo for $695, looks like it's in minty condition, has the EQ too. I picked up Boogie #264 the other day, a blonde head w/ reverb and EQ !

I trust you are young, strong, have no back/shoulder/elbow/knee problems, yet you are not afraid of acquiring such a problem. That MkIV combo was my favorite gig amp, I'm still not happy with myself for selling it. But that freakin' thing was SOooo damn heavy and unwieldy i couldn't handle it anymore. I got to the point where i would just leave it in the back of the SUV during the week rather than lug it in & out of the house, up & down the stairs every weekend.

I should have thought it out and bought an empty head cabinet & reconfig'd it, but noooo. I accepted what i thought was a pretty nice caysh offer. Stuck in my thumb, pulled out a plum, and said what a dumbass am I.

Great great amp, extremely versatile, reliable & durable. However I recommend a head & cab config, rather than the combo.

just my $0.02

I lugged around my MKIIC+ in an Anvil case for two years of touring. I think the reason they seem so heavy is because they are so small - they really don't weigh any more than some larger amps, but the small size makes them seem just THAT MUCH HEAVIER.

HHB and JeffR,

Thanks for the kind words. I love both you guys.

I'm really stuck on the Mark IV if at all possible. They are a tweakers delight but they really work well for me. I had one that I loved and sold to fund a once-in-a-lifetime purchase. I always knew that I'd get another when I had the funds. There are actually two right now on the 'bay within driving distance. That alone will save me approx. $100 on shipping.

Ken,

I absolutely agree that their small size makes them SEEM heavier than they actually are.

For those selling DC's, what's the lowdown on them?

Thanks again,

Gary

DC series = clean channel of a Mark series (best clean I've heard) + lead channel with as much gain as you could want on tap, plus a lot more clarity and less harshness than a Rectifier (but can be made just as bottom heavy)

I have an absolutely mint Stiletto Deuce head FS.

Any interest in switching to EL34s?

Dave,

I've got that covered with my Bogner XTC. Best sounding "Marshall" I've ever heard.

Dayum! That MK IV with the 2x12 cab for $800 is stoopid cheap.

No kidding! It's a shame I'm on the opposite coast.

Hey there,

I have a new sealed MarkIV long head that was purchased in a pair with another MarkIV. Originally purchased as a studio backup but never used.

Please check my eBay trading handle (also "Koreldyre") for references. I have a strong reputation for selling guitars and surplus music gear fast and in 10.0 new condition.

I sent an email. If you or anyone is interested, please feel free to email me at [email protected].

There's a used MKIV combo at the Seven Corners GC in Falls Church VA. I didn't look at the price, just saw it as I walked by. Too much amp for me these days :o

Good luck!
