    Default Mesa Boogie MKIVB

    1992 complete with full flightcase.
    Serviced by Dennis Marshall last year.
    Electrovoice speaker and original Mesa STR420 coke bottle tubes.
    Comes complete with footswitch, removable casters and a set of one gig old JJ6L6s
    No issues. I have 2 for that ultimate rig but have only ever taken one to a gig as my anticipation is always greater than my execution.

    It's not that complicated really .... Once you get used to Mesa's gain structure and inter-activity of the controls, it all starts to make sense
    Combined with the EV, it's a great combo !

    btw johnny, are you sure that's a B model - I thought they changed the rear panel to an IEC socket for the mains, rather than the attatched power cable ?

    +1, the IV's are great great amps, I had a little sabbatical from one, grass is greener etc etc, but soon came back!!

    I would say thats an early IVb due to the lack of IEC...
    I'm a pedal addict....

    The Bs have the mono send and stereo returns, the As have 2 mono loops.
    For some this is the ultimate MKIV depending on your view on the EV speakers.
    It's certainly a little 'crisper' than the Celestion loaded ones but each to their own.
