Joyous day for those who are fans of boogie amps

They reissued the Mark IIC+ amp! I like the clean tones of it but if I get it (someday in the future) I’m probably gonna do some And Justice For All dist tones with it. Mark IIC+ reissue
I ❤️ fuzz pedals!

I used to have an Mark IIC+ SX (60w, bare bones, no eq) combo some 15 years ago. I bought it in Vienna in a small shop and I was told the original owner was Falco's guitar player and that it was the first Mesa/Boogie in Austria. Since that was sometime in 2008 or 2009, nobody wanted vintage Mark series amps back then, the czk to usd/eur rate was super low and I was able to buy that amp for something like 500 euros including its original hard case ! Oh, I wish I kept that, I sold it later to a friend for the same money I bought it for to finance a Single Rectifier with a 4x12 Marshall cab (d'oh). I was GASing for one from time to time, eagerly awaiting the release of the reissue, but then I got myself a Neural DSP Mark IIC+ plugin and I was amazed how spot on it sounds. It just felt the same as the real thing, minus the excessive weight :D It also made me realize that I'm not after that sound anymore - I am very happy with my Mesa/Boogie Mark I and JCM 800 2204 and couple of other amps and I don't really need another heavy amp to lug around to gigs.
