Sirmy, I came across a Mesa MkV yesterday in a shop. Holy cow, that thing is tricky! A seriously impressive piece of equipment. Unfortunately I didn't have time to play through it, but I gave it a good looking-over and tried to make sense of what all the switches do. Seems to be different EQ or something?
