Howdy Craigslisters! I am selling my Mesa Boogie Mark IV Rackmount head in a 5U Gator Pro Series rack case including the FU3 footswitch. This is one of the most versatile and iconic amps Mesa ever made and a much sought after amp in the Mark series. If you’re looking for that classic Mark-series punch, screaming lead tones, and tight rhythm sounds, this is the amp. It’s a true workhorse and studio favorite.
Highlights & Features
- In excellent working condition — fully functional, no issues
- Three-channel amp
- Rhythm 1 and Rhythm 2 channels share a mid/bass but each channel has a dedicated treble, gain, master, and presence
- Lead channel has a dedicated EQ, gain, drive, master, and presence
- Master level control
- Pull-bright/shift voicings, triode/pentode switching, Class A/Simul options (it's a knob-tweaker's paradise)
- Famous 5-band graphic EQ that can be switched on/off
- Simul-Class power section for huge dynamic range
- There are a bunch of switching options on the back panel of the amp to perfectly tune power amp characteristics, foot switch functionality, FX loop activations, line out and associated level, reverb level, etc.
- Built like a tank — classic Mesa engineering

If you’re seeing this, the amp is still available. Message me to make an offer! I can send you a link to the Mesa Boogie Mark IV user manual if you'd like to learn more about the amp.
