General Comments

I used one of the earlier Mesa Boogie about 4 years or more - use one with a JP Les Paul and you will have THE sound everyone wants. The tubes were very expensive to replace especially in the UK. The amp is now over £2000 in the UK and its a complete rip off by the distributor. The amp has huge power thought and remains one of the best sounding products in the world.

The recording out is great - you can turn off the speaker while recording direct and the sound is excellent.

I also found the pull swithces very useful to shape the sounds I wanted and overall, these were the secret to the Mark IV - spend some time on this aspect of the amp.
