Well, in that case, lets get this party started.

I haven't tried one, but I don't think it sounds like a real IIC+.

Spread the word.

I don’t have enough fingers and toes to count the number of highly detailed essays I’ve read the last few weeks about why it will guaranteed sound nothing like the original/cash grab by Gibson/ blah blah blah


Btw my actual IIC+ is for sale, Mike B. Nutted on it himself I have the papers

Or even funnier, my Mark III is for sale and totally commands a $3k price tag

The Mark III prices are the worst for sure haha. IIC+s have been up there for a long time, so that's not really a surprise. They're a collector's item at this point. But a Mark III? Suck my sweaty desert balls lol. $3k. What a fucking joke lol. The IV prices are at least not 4x what they're worth like the IIIs lol.

Yeah ridiculous


I did end up grabbing that purple stripe a few days ago but scored it for only $900 which is basically unheard of for any IIi these days lolol . With the HX stomp Mesa GEQ in the loop it’s insanely brutal, no regrets

i thought the world wanted a new iic+, kinda surprised it seems like so many people are wanting it to fail. if its even 95% close to mine and they got the feel right, which is what really separates it from other amps for me, $3600 is a fucking bargain

Imo… from what I’ve seen the only people that want it to fail are anti-Gibson internet dweebs, and doofuses trying to guard their investments in OGs (and for whatever reason, IIIs too )


And both those groups are doing their best to be loud as possible

Considering that none of us really know what the amp even remotely sounds like yet it is pretty easy to spot out the disingenuous folks that are showing their cards way to early and there’s a whole fuckload of them
