Condition Notes:
– Condition: 8.5/10
– Any wear of note: There’s some light scuffing and surface scratches here and there in the tolex. But the amp is still in overall amazing shape!
– General notes: The Mark Five is truly an incredible amp series from Mesa that’s built with the player in mind! It’s absolutely packed to the gills with features and specifications to make it the ultimate gigging amp. Everything about it is meant to be versatile, optimal and near the only amp you’ll ever need on a gig! With things like 3 different modes per channel for varying degrees of gains and tones depending on the gig, selectable wattage per channel (10, 45 or 90 watts!), a footswitchable graphic EQ, foot switchable solo boost and so much more! It really gives you the power to use it exactly as you’d like and make the amp work for you and whatever musical situation you may find yourself in. And this particular amp is from 2009, the first year of the Mark Five series! It’s a true tone monster through and through!
– Accessories included: Original 8-button footswitch, footswitch cable, power cable and original POP amp top display sheet only.
