Mesa Boogie Mark Five 25 Valve Head Overview
The Mesa Boogie Mark V: 25Gäó is born of thoroughbred stock that carries accolades the world over. The Mark 5:25, like the Mark V that's spawned it is really a collection of iconic amplifiers. There are far too many tones that can be coaxed from it to think of it as merely an amp... it's a potted history of MESA/Boogie Tone!From the groundbreaking MARK I that introduced the world to high-gain with it's cascading preamp, to the Mark II - the world's first high gain Dual Mode Channel Switching amplifier (and it's later siblings that introduced Simul-Class power). From the MARK III that ushered in the era of 3 Channel footswtching performance, to the MARK IV which gave all that power individual control, the MARK FIVE (and now the FIVE: 25) is the embodiment of the last 45 years of guitar amp evolution.
