I didn't spend too much time with it because I had places to go and wanted to try some other amps too. I tried out a 5153, 5153 mini, JCM 800 KK, Vox Night Train, and some others. I spent most of the time on the 5153's though.

Not sure why I didn't try out maxed out gain, but I mostly stayed on clean and mid-gain. It can get a killer lead tone by the way. Thinking about it now, I'm sure it can get more than enough gain for 3 Days Grace.

Here's a video if you want to see the gain capabilities of the 5153:



By the way, what's your budget? If you can get a Mark V, I'd go with that. But it does cost 2x as much. It's not that complex, but it takes time to EQ a good sound.

By the way, I'm 99% sure Mark V can be used with midi. And I know for a fact that the 5153 can too.
