Just sold my Mark V:25 yesterday on Craigslist w/o doing a Mark IIC+ tone test with my AX8. I new the tone was in there but I was scared none the less. Set up a simple patch today with the IIC+ and cab only. Sounded like ass! Plugged in Cliff's IIC+ settings and it sounded EXACTLY like the amp I just sold! Only BETTER! NO NOISE! My God! What an incredible piece of gear!!!
