    O/T: The amp is sold...now what?

    Howdy Ho Guys!

    I finally sold my triaxis (she should be leaving in a few days or so) and I shall begin the search for my new amp. I just couldn't get what I needed out of her, but she was great (I'm such a gear freak- her name was Trixie). Anyway, I'll be picking up a Mark IV wideboy combo next week I think. But, I'm just not sure. So here's the question for you guys:

    I'm using a marshall AVT150h for my clean and overdriven sound. I love classic rock, and some indie rock. I'm also big into Prog, such as Porcupine Tree, Mogwai, Dream Theater....

    Will this marshall in conjunction with the Mark IV be an insane setup? What do you guys have to say about the marks?

    And finally and most importantly:

    How will this sound with my JP!!!!!?????

    ****! Had I have known you were selling the Triaxis, I'd have made an offer. Wow, talk about bad luck!

    Well...it isn't sold yet. PM me with an offer, and if you want to beat the current offer of $2,000 including shipping, let me know.

    Gee, with a set-up like that, I guess you could gig just about anywhere on anything!!

    However, I'm just in a "downsizing" mode latley. Trying to "eliminate" any piece of gear I possibly can and still have a great live sound.

    No rack, one Core pedal box, (a few pedals), and a JCM DSL 401 combo - it's scary it sounds sooo good!! And, I'm in and out before the police arrive!

    With my Frenzel Twin-Plexi and Geezer 2x12 I can hit any sound I'm going after I love it...Once the EB Wah is released I think I'll be complete.

    On Mesa Boogie's site there are video interviews and Petruci talks about using the Mark IV on a lot of their recent stuff. I've never heard a Mesa I didn't like and since I retubed my Triaxis/2:Ninety, I can't see getting rid of it unless someone wanted to trade it for a RoadKing II....

    Well, it was already retubed with JJ's. I don't want to spend another 200 bucks on tubes for it to find that I still don't like it.
