Stereo (Mark III / Lonestar Special) or Mark VII???

[wharf rat]

So it’s the same money (~$3500k) - what’s the cooler setup? Correct answers only.

I mean depends what you're trying to do. What type of sound are you after??

Stereo is a whole lot of fun, until you have to move it around regularly.

It’ll never move. It’s gonna sit in my office.

There's a cooler amp than the mark III?

depends on what style of music u mainly play, mark iii and lonestar gives one-trick liquid gain and true bubble clean, but mark vii has all of those in it, plus extras. mark vii has all the shades of liquid gain types, plus true bubble clean, all with the 5 band. plus extreme mode. but lonestar and mark iii both have dual gain knobs. I need both gain knobs to run gain at 3 and overdrive at 7, mark vii is fixed

I am not gonna lie - some of the features of the newer MkVII appeal to me; CabClone, Headphone out, etc.

Mark VII or GTFO

I vote no for stereo rigs unless it's a digital modeler or preamp into a stereo poweramp.

It just gets pretty annoying to manage so one rig doesn't overpower the other.

Mark V. Buy two. Same price as a Mark VII and more versatility/range of tones/power options.
