Had it for 3 months. Love it! People saying it’s hard to dial in and too complicated have never had one. It’s easy! So much control and literally no bad sounds can come out of this.

last time I called Sweetwater I did not get my sales rep, I jokingly asked "yeah just, connect me over to Don Carr."

The Mesa is great but had a hard time taking my eyes off that beautiful PRS Modern Eagle.! Great demo, Thanks!

My 1979 Mesa Boogie Mark IIB is my favorite amp on planet Earth. 6000+ gigs later I haven't met an amp I like more. The most 'tweaky' amp too, so those who aren't familiar sometimes hate it. Great video! Mesa remains leading-edge in every way. Most of all in the most important way - tone. Also in durability.

Finally a Boogie demo that actually shows the variety of usable tones. Thank you.

I had a Mark V 90W and ended up getting the Mark VII because it started having issues. I was surprised at how different it is, and I think they really got it right. The core tone is the same, but the Mark V has so many tone shaping options that the end result tends to sound like something that has been processed down into a smaller, more precise form, like it has been mixed in a track. The VII has a lot more openness, punch and power. It sounds and feels more like a “traditional”, Fender type amp. A lot of people complained about the complexity of the Mark V, and I think they answered that correctly here. They removed a lot of the controls, but they really aren’t missed. It is a really pure, great tube amp that delivers the tone everyone wants, without complications. And then it adds modern features to let you go direct, and does it all with a much lighter weight and smaller footprint than the Mark V. I wasn’t sure about it before I played it, but I had them side by side and the VII was the winner. The size is smaller, but the sound is bigger. Win-win. And the clean channel really feels like Fenders I had in the past, which I couldn’t say about the Mark V.

The only downside is the price tag, of course. But if you want a Mark and can handle the cost, this one is it. It’s also a good sign that M/B is still producing the same quality under Gibson. I think you could go as far as saying this is the best Mark ever. Maybe not as “experimental” as past attempts, but giving people exactly what they want and need from the Mark series. Smart, and good.

This amp sounds just killer and perfect. I"d buy one if I was a good enough guitar player and had the money too. And the need for it. I want it but don't need it. Love the sound from what I'm hearing so far though.

My first real amp was the Mess Mark IIB I found at a local guitar shop for $800 CAD. Wish I kept that amp…

[Peetie_Wheatstraw]

Great amp! I'd also like to see a full demo of that Modern Eagle V guitar.

[BlackbirdDH]

Super great well structrured demo ... and love the amp ... hope they well be available in Europe soon.

[ibrajimenez]

My knly suggestion with this one is : get an attenuator, this thing is very loud! Sounds great 👍 and perfect for gigs. Love it!

[Epochstudios]

All these people complaing about price when it's well worth it. This has of all the options, modes and plus the cab clone IR tech( which is way awesome I had it on my badlander) that any studio, session, gigging professional or hobbyist guitar player could ever want. This amp is worth the $3500 it's the same price for the JP2c. Look at other amps that don't have near the versatility to choose from. And they cost more... people also forget Mesa is a Boutique amp company. 🙄 people sometimes. You don't have to buy it. But I will. No problems there. I need to add a Mark to my rectifier collection

[BigWheelDigitalMediaBAOklahoma]

Fantastic production and presentation gang! Nice work!

[tonylord]

Thank you for this demo. I know the metal heads out there love chugging through the Mark amps, but this showed how the Mark 7 is capable of producing much more sophisticated and sweeter tones. This was a helpful video.

[HowardFrischer]

Oh boy, I’m going to have to figure out how to get this one.

[josephandrewvictor]

Fantastic playing! .. thanks Don. And that amp is off the hook…

[Art-zssl]

The sustain went for days then the feedback was perfect! That was great thanks to Don Carr!

[martinkowalski]

You mentioned MIDI - does this include storing any possible combination within one channel as presets and/or switching between those three voicings per channel? The Triple Crown doesn't offer this flexibility, which is ridiculous considering all the opportunities this would provide. I mean, the JVM series has been enabling you to do so right from the start ...
