Questions Regarding Mesa Mark 5:25 Mini Amp


Recommended Posts

Hey DB: Our rehearsal was cancelled due to the weather. We're going to test the amp in the Band Shell tonight at the performance. I think it will do great.

Thanks for asking. The Traynor I have is a YVC20. It uses EL84 Tubes and has two channels. The overdrive channel is less than convincing and I have always added a pedal to the signal chain. Tonight with the Mesa, no overdrive pedal at all. Just channel 2 in Mark 5 mode. It really sounds good.

Take care.

Gitfiddler: Actually, no, I'll be slinging a Gibson CS-336. Seems like the Funk Brothers always featured a Tele/Strat (Joe played a three pickup tele) and a humbucker guitar or two. There were actually 3 guitarists with the FB and each played a different guitar. We have only two guitarists and the other gent plays a very bright Strat. So, I let him chime and I play more mellow. When we performed the show in Feb., the two guitar approach worked well, but that was inside. I may wish I had a Tele by the end of the night. Thanks for jumping in.

Take care. The Mesa is loaded in the truck for the trip to the band shell. Pics will follow.
