Please forgive my ignorance, but my Mark V is my first Boogie amp and I'd like to know what other Boogie amps share the clean fat and crunch tone of the Mark V or come close to it? Specifically, I'm thinking of any of the smaller combo amps. I like both the classic rock and hard rock sounds, and my Mark V can deliver what I like but I've got to move to smaller amp. Thanks for any suggestions.

This is a long shot, but can anybody share a copy of the Fillmore 50 schematic with me? I bought my Fillmore in 2020 here in the UK and have a problem with reverb switching. It adds noise once plugged in, and it gets worse when I touch the footswitch metal parts. In October 2021, the amp went to Andertons for service but returned with the same fault. I was told I was using the wrong footswitch and tip-to-ground, latching footswitch; no LED is needed to switch the reverb in and out. This is... Read more
Hi everyone, I've been playing for a very long time and I have both a Mesa Boogie Mark V 25 and a Marashall Silver Jubilee. I like classic rock, and I'm trying to get better at metal core, which is where the V25 is better. Thankful for being here. Carlos

Hi folks, I'm relatively new to Boogie amps (only had one for about a year...a Mark V 35), and only after getting one did I realize how crappy my Marshall DSL 20 sounded in comparison, lol. After 3 decades of playing guitar I'm not even really that good but it's still a lot of fun to fool around. I'm not in a band or anything, I just record stuff at home for my own personal enjoyment. I'm sad because after finding out how great these amps are I have to let go of my Mark V and get something... Read more

Hey guys, I’m just curious if anyone has had issues with their new Mark VIIs. I tried buying one recently. To keep a long story short, I purchased a VII head from a well known retailer, and it had some bad humming issues. So I sent it back, and the replacement had similar issues. So they sent me a third one, and that one also had similar issues. I emailed Mesa all three times and all three times and all three times they confirmed the issue was with the amp, and offered immediate warranty... Read more
Hey all. Just wanted to introduce myself as a new (and first-time) Mesa/Boogie owner. Been playing guitar and bass for over forty years and have been through more gear than I can remember. Without getting too deep into my life story, I've always bought used, marginally good stuff and did my best with it. Owning a Mesa has been a bucket list thing for me and now, in my late fifties, I finally have the means to make that dream come true. That said, I recently bought a new Mark V 35 combo... Read more
Hi, I have a V25 combo, but I want a head. So, I'm looking to see if anyone has a empty shell for sale or willing to trade my combo for your head. Mine is in perfect condition, just don't use it as a combo and run it into a 4x12 cab. I know theres a company on Reverb that has one for sale, but looking for other closer or affordable options.

I bought this amp new a year ago and it has been lightly used by me only at home. I don't know what I was thinking getting this amp because it's way too much power for my little space. I absolutely love the clean fat and crunch settings but don't really have much use for the others. Comes with the foot switch and manual. I still have the original blue grille if you want to put that back on but I also have extra Oxblood from Ruby Tubes if you want to do a better job than I did. Asking $1800... Read more
