Is owning a Mark IV and a Mark V excessive?

[HomespunEffects]

I’ve owned Mark III Simulclass, a Dual Rectifier (non-MW) and a Mark Five:35. The Mark Five was the only one that I liked. If I could only have one, it would be the Five.

Excessive relative to what? If you like both and have the money to buy both, then I'd say it's not excessive.
Yngwie has like a bazillion "vintage white" SSS strats and he seems to love all of them.

Who cares. buy what makes you happy that you can afford.

Happily rocking both now

At somepoint, yes.

The question is where Mesa goes from here. Keep releasing Mark VIII with the staples + some new modes? Go toward a more digitalized product and release a Mark that can do all previous iterations? Or the opposite way and release reincarnated separate versions of previous goldies, like version 2 of Mark III as one amp, a version 2 of Mark IV as one amp?

… like version 2 of Mark III as one amp, a version 2 of Mark IV as one amp?

Is it a Mark III Mk II or is it Mark 3.2?

I mean, if a MkIV was good enough, then why'd Mesa Boogie come out with the V?

Nothing of value to add. But I just love this:

I've been saying I'd love to see a 40th anniversary Mark III reissue released next year

Is it a Mark III Mk II or is it Mark 3.2?

A mark 3 mark 2 sounds confusing as hell, I can't imagine they would go for that XD

Yeah, Mark III is a very underrated amp, never shown any love in their Mark V amps and beyond.
