Enjoy the visit. Always wanted to go there. I was a Mark IIB guy. I’ve owned quite a few Mesa’s but the older Mark combos were always my favorites.

I am currently Mesa-less, but thinking about picking up a Fillmore 50 combo or an old Son of Boogie (SOB) combo one of these days.

I have a Tremoverb and love the hell out of it! I run a long plate Mullard in V1 and usually keep 6L6 tubes in it. Couple those with a Suhr Koko Boost and a Fryette PS2 (just for speaker clipping), and look the fuck out! When I get hooked on it my Marshalls collect dust. Having an odd problem with V1 at the moment. It seems to blow the tube but when I pull it out and plug it back in it comes back to life for about 2-3 minutes. Then it happens again.. The tube doesn't actually blow... Not a fun amp to work on so now I have an excuse to go to Mesa. Spoke to a tech over the phone and he was stumped as well.. It has never been serviced. I love the reverb with this amp.. It's just right..
