New Mesa Mark amp coming?

[wharf rat]

how many switches is too many switches/knobs, I mean, come on.

Not going to watch this because I’m not giving him the view. But did he just play power chords on a drop-tuned guitar during his demonstration?

All this talk is making me want to finally try the Mark models in the FM9.
FWIW, I think this thing sounds pretty good but I'd never own a Mark in real life again.
Digital model is good enough for me to scratch that itch.

The mark/triaxis models are ridiculously good. I love my Mark IV but it doesn't get anywhere near as much play time as the fractal model, and I can set the fat switch per scene so you get the best of both worlds for rhythm and lead.

Hey @2112 , on a side note: I've had your YT theme song riff running in my head for two days now. It's a great riff, so I don't mind!

Manual is up:

So, if you happen to see a MARK VI for sale on the Internet or elsewhere, beware...it is counterfeit.

Oh, hi Gibson, yes I thought you might.

I was watching your FM9 Cygna X2 video last night. Damn dude, you're my spirit animal when it comes to Mark tones.

Welp, spent two hours last night trying to get close to Petrucci's Scenes From a Memory distorted sound on the FM9 and accidentally jammed along with the whole album. Can confirm the IIC+ model is amazing.

Sidenote: This was the first time I've properly listened to the whole record in like 10 years and it's still great.

My problem is I seemingly only like ridiculously expensive amps.
Inner dialog:
No you don’t need a $3,500 second amp
No you don’t need a $3,500 second amp
No you don’t need a $3,500 second amp

This is where you tell yourself your Blug is all you need to dial in any tone you could think of

Well what I like is firmly in "Fender cleans and Marshall overdrive" so it does those just great. Doesn't mean I don't get excited about expensive amps every now and then...

The only Mesa I truly love is the Lonestar Classic, which is basically a modded Fender Twin.

That's like calling a Dumble "basically" a modded Bassman...

Bro do you even Road King?

 

[Boudoir Guitar]

I've gotta say, this fucking forum has ramped up my Mesa gas like a mofo. Cali Tweed...TA-30...Lonestar Special...yes please.

So are we thinking that the Mark VI = JP2C? And that's why they went to Mark VII?

I think it sounds great and I like the features. But unless I win Lotto, never going to have one

However, my IICP module gets me the exact Mark tones I want. And 2 channels of whatever else I want in my SYN2.

Those Synergy models look so cool. I didn't realize they had a IICP and they even have a graphic EQ.

If I ever had windfall lotto money, I'd definitely put a rack together with some Synergy preamps and the Axe 3. Overkill I'm sure. But cool.

I get that song stuck in my head all the time. Great song, really cool band. It's not often you have YouTube guitarists who make great music but Leon's an exception!

It sounds most likely to be as simple as Randall Smith turns 77 this year and he'd rather end his "Mark" run on 7 rather than 6.
