The Mark III offers three separate channels: a clean channel that is warm and lush, a rhythm channel with a gritty, midrange-focused sound, and a lead channel capable of producing searing, high-gain saturation.
The Purple Stripe designation refers to a specific iteration within the Mark III series -the second revision that featured a purple marker stripe above the power cord. This ampli-fier was identical in component values and R2 channel as the later Black Stripes, but had a lead section much closer to a IIC+
The amp boasts Mesa’s Simul-Class power section, which combines Class A and Class AB amplification for a blend of warmth, dynamics, and headroom.

One of the most important amps Mesa Boogie's history, the Mark III launched in 1985 and brought a third "crunch" channel the party, offering even more versatility to an already-winning formula of paint-peeling volume and a wider range of tones than any of the mass-produced amps of the time. Slightly revised each year from 1985 - 1989, most of these amps will come with Reverb and Presence controls on the rear panel and, though it was optional, the 5-band graphic equalizer made it onto a majority of Mark IIIs.
