I know at least one of you guys rocks a Mark IV.
I have a question:
Last I used mine, it was pretty noisy. Like, crackly white noise/static on the Lead Channel. I swapped out all the tubes and the noise was still there.
So, I ended up putting the set of good tubes into the 5150 and set the Mesa aside and havent used it since.
Maybe I need it serviced? Tube sockets maybe dirty?
the 5150 is naturally sorta noisy on the Lead channel but the Mark IV was always super quiet. and the 5150 doesnt make the noise with the same tubes in it. Maybe the Mark is just pickier about the tubes it takes?
Anyone? I'd rather not have to ship this guy out because the short head is like 45 lbs if I remember correct.
