Members petejt Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 Even if there are some things on that page that are un-released, why the hell would mesa boogie spend the extra money to trademark the Mark V THREE different ways? It's a reality and if petrucci playing them live and this doesnt convince you, you're an idiot. Because they are cunts and want to hog the name.

Members phyrexia Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 Blue Angel? The Bigfoot is just the foot controller for the three-channel Recs. And the Fillmore's a speaker. Blue Angel's listed separately. Bigfoot, you got me there. The fillmore, i forgot :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Brady Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 What'll this do to mkIV prices? Drive them down? Unless it sucks, then everybody will say the Mark IV is vintage and better and try to get a premium price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shiny_Surface Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 Unless it sucks, then everybody will say the Mark IV is vintage and better and try to get a premium price.Probably not all that different from the 2 channel Dual Rec hype over the newer 3 channel models Older and out of production is always better...

Members thinkpad20 Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 If the mark V sounds better, I predict a sharp decline in IV price followed by a steady return to (mostly) what it was before, maybe a bit cheaper. If the V is underwhelming or has a lot of haters, like the three channel rectos, then the IV will probably return to it's regular used price, or perhaps a little higher, and the older your model is the more it will be. At least this is what I'm hoping because I have a #300-something Mark IVa vintage FTW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OverDriven Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 The only way the Mark IV is going to drop in price is if the new Mark V is priced at the same point that a new Mark IV was priced at ($1850). That is not going to happen, as I'm sure it will be well over the $2000 price point. Mark IV used prices are not going anywhere. Mark III prices did not drop when the Mark IV came out.

In the off chance the Mark V sounds so fantastically superior that a lot of owners offload their VIs to get one...Even still, I think there'd be plenty of market out there for people wanting to pick up a VI... enough so that supply/demand would keep the prices from dropping below what they are now. IMO.Like the Mark III... that used to be a cheap way to get that killer Mark series tone without having to fork out for an overpriced IIC+ or the fancier IV. That is 'til everyone, their dogs, their mothers, and their mother's dogs wanted to get that tone for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BigFatPaulWall Posted June 20, 2008 Members Share Posted June 20, 2008 Boogie updated their trademark page (today I think), Mark 5 is added, along with a few other surprises. http://www.mesaboogie.com/Trademarks/Trademarks.htm Seems like I was right after all.This would be a typical response from the people who critized me on my thread about Petrucci playing the MKV...*crickets chirping* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
