Have You Bought Any Amp Heads / Combos & Cabs In 2025?

Some horse trading and Deluxe Reverb in da house.

To my ears it way mid forward and I like what I get out of my Mark V better, it's an awesome amp but it collects dust for me.

If you play live and need to cut through the mix I am 100% sure this is the better amp or if you play solo's even. I am barley a rythm player and never play with anyone else so I like extra low end.

I's interesting that we guitar players (I include myself) get deep into the weeds when comparing amps, as the Mark V and JP2C are both superb pieces of equipment.

I'm struggling with the fact that I bought the Mark VII thinking I could maybe do without one of my other Mesas - and of course, I could - but for some reason I can't bear to part with them.

I'm not usually reluctant to sell gear. Oh well!

I agree, you play a much wider range of music based on the posts I've seen, so it makes sense that you need more amps for the sounds you're going for.

I hate selling things, but I've only plugged in all three of these amps zero to three times over the past year.I'm trying to keep only the gear I actually want to play.

I have this strange habit of collecting stuff, thinking it’ll inspire me to play more, but then I realize the honeymoon phase never lasts, and I don’t end up playing more because of the gear.

I'm guilty of rationalizations like, 'if I buy item A my tone quest will be fulfilled, and II'll never want/need another thing'.

It's a self-delusion in my case. Next Shiny Objects have been known to distract me. :crazy
 
Someone above wants to sell the JP2C, I just bought it... and that's fine, everyone has their own preferences.
At the moment I have a Mezzabarba Trinity and the JP2C, it's hard to choose which one is better. Both are great.

It was me. And the JP2C is amazing and you will love it I am sure. I just enjoy my Mark V more for me.

What things do you like on the Mark V?

My favorite channel on the Mark V 90 is the 3rd channel and it kinda makes me wish I had two of them like the JP2C. But without all the modes it's not the same thing.

For my ears, and I am tarded I promise, it's so mid forward and if you hit the shred boost it's even more so. I feel like I can't get that low end "I" like. I play alone and like to be my own bass player w/o owning a bass.

It's an amazing amp though for most people. I spend all of my time on channel 3 extreme scooped like mids are the enemy!
