Mesa/Boogie Mark IV Amp Head

At 0:37 you can see the Mark IV in his rack, he also used it in the Systematic Chaos album

"With Slash I’m using the Mesa Mark IV and with Alter Bridge I’m using the [Diezel Herbert](https://equipboard.com/items/diezel-herbert-180w-tube-guitar-head). I was using the Diezel in conjunction with the Mesa Mark IV in Alter Bridge and basically what was happening is the front of house guy was like, 'I’m not running a lot of the Mesa, because it’s so similar sonically to Mark’s sound.'" - [Source](http://guitarinternational.com/2011/01/27/myles-kennedy-talks-prs-guitars-alter-bridge-and-slash/).

In this [Rig Rundown at Premier Guitar](http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/Rig_Rundown_Lamb_of_God), Mark is shown to have a Mark IV Amp Head in his rack.

Noodles used these amps since about 1994 and to this day. "About a year ago, Dexter and I were turned on to VHT amplifiers by our tech, Steve Masi. VHT's are made by a guy named Steve Friette, who used to play guitar in The Dickies. His amps are awesome and add so much to our sound, but we found that we missed a lot of what our Mesa/Boogie Mark IV's had to offer, so we run both amps in unison. The sounds we are getting now are huge and still well-defined," says Noodles.

"Loeffler remains a life-long Boogie man, having played the same rig for his entire professional career. The Chevelle sound ends with a Mesa/Boogie Mark IV plugged into two Mesa/Boogie 4x12 cabs. A second Mark IV functions as a backup."

Adler's offstage rack is controlled by his tech during shows. In the rack, Willie has two Mesa/Boogie Mark IV heads (one for powering the Mesa/Boogie Stiletto 4x12 cabs on stage and one that goes to FOH). A third Mark IV head sitting on top of the rack is a backup…

"In the studio though I use my old mesa mark IV head with a 2×10 cabinet."

The only amp that he uses.

Clint said he used a Mesa Boogie Mark IV for all his recordings

" I use the most my MESA BOOGIE Mark IV. And then we use some Blackface FENDERs. We use the Super Reverb Blackface, and we use the original Bassman."

> Yeah. It makes sense to use what you have because that is what people will see and hear live. Most of my guitar tones were recorded with my two PRS guitars—an S2 Vela and SE 277 Baritone—into my Mesa/Boogie Mark IV through this old Ampeg 4x12 cabinet that has really high headroom.

Spotted at 2:43, Marcus' guitar tech mentions that Marcus had his Mark IV guitar heads Kemper profiled for live shows.

He uses simulation of this amp on his fractal.

According to his official website, this is one of his Mesa Boogie amps.
