The Mark Five: 25 combines the power of our most famous Mark Series circuits with our Patented Multi-Watt™ Channel Assignable EL-84 loaded Power Amp, featuring Mesa’s proprietary Dyna-Watt™ technology, to create a new Mark Series amp of unprecedented portability, clip-ability and highspeed, tactile expressiveness. The result is a new bench-MARK, every bit worthy of its ancestor’s storied heritage.
