Pedals that stack with the Mesa Boogie Mark Five:90 1x12 Combo

Friedman BE-OD

The BE-OD's tight, modern high-gain stacks with the Mark Five's own fusion-voiced high-gain for an even sharper front end.

Beetronics Buzzter Boost Preamp

The Mark Five:90's headroom gives the Buzzter's transparent boost room to push the lead channel harder before it breaks up.

Marshall Guv'nor

The Guv'nor's vocal, balanced crunch pushes the Mark Five:90's high-gain channel into fuller, more sustained saturation.

Boss CE-2 Chorus

Run the CE-2's watery, liquid chorus sweep after the Mark Five:90's fusion-voiced, high-gain headroom and the modulation has real body to color.

Dunlop MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini

The Carbon Copy Mini's dark, ambient slapback delay belongs in the Mark Five:90's loop, clear of the amp's own fusion-voiced, high-gain headroom. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Wampler Cory Wong

The Cory Wong's funky compression tightens the signal before the Mark Five:90's own high-gain, fusion-voiced channel takes over.

Walrus Audio Fathom

Fathom's ambient reverb algorithms belong in the Mark Five:90's loop, after the amp's own high-gain channels rather than smeared in front of them. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)
