Played the Mesa Mark V25 (the mini mark V) today
To say I was impressed is an understatement.
This little amp blew my doors off.
I was stunned how well this thing held together at drummer levels. That is always my biggest fear with these low wattage amps. I know people say "well, twice the wattage only increases it by 3db", and I'm sure they aren't lying, but even so some of those lower watt amp have there sound quality flub out trying keep up with a drummer. Loud but lose all tone.
I think Mesa has hit a home run with these little amps.
I ordered one.
So light and with the recto 1x12 easy as could be to lug around.
Used it with a tc electronics flashback delay and it just kicked ass!
I wanted a lightweight amp that could hang with a drummer and it was between this and the Friedman pink taco. Currently borrowing a buddies pink taco (wish he would give these amp better names). That little amp sounds great too, but I had to give the nod to the Mark V25.
Here is a cool video of Petrucci trying out a prototype with Randall Smith
