    5:25 with Celestion Gold

    Soundechaser.....does the C10 gold drop right in with no mods?? My 5:25/10 does something interesting.

    Should I buy a used Express 5:25 (1x10) for $899?

    I picked up a "used" 5:25 10" on CL for 900.00 with a mic stand and a amp stand for no additional money. The amp was pristine and without a mark anyway I could find. The fellow that owned it had it less than a year and gave me the original receipt for the full cost. He even gave me the local...

    express series reliability issues?

    I bought a used 5:25 10" and it is just a wonderful amp. This amp is no differecnt than a new one only less money and no tax. I even got a amp and mic stand for N/C. I find it to be great when playing at home, without the sideways looks from the family, and also on stage. For me it is the...

    Mic'ing and Express 5:25 w/10"

    I play mostly in a Christian worship band formerly using a Behringer Vampire 112. The problem with that amp is it is heavy to carry, limited touch sensitivity, does not work well with my Carvin DC-200 Koa. It did sound ok with my Taylor T-5 in most situations. Now the Express is a whole...

    Mic'ing and Express 5:25 w/10"

    Hi all, I recently bought my Express and have just found my sound. Anyone want to buy a Fender Supersonic 112?? Anyway, I decided to purchase a microphone for it and chose a Sennheiser E609. For the bang for the buck it seems to be the right choice. Now here is my question....I have a mic...

    Build short cable for footswitch.

    I want to build a short foot switch cable that comes out of the amp about 9 inches and ends. The reason is I don't want to carry it in the amp and I don't want to plug and unplug each time. So can any one help with what the male and female 5 pin plugs are and where I can find. I have given...

    Reverb not working in Express 5:50 1 x 12 combo

    Hi, With my limited knowledge of electronics, I would say it may be the tubes. One thing you could try is call Mesa and speak to CS. There is a fella there named Mike Taylor and I am sure he will provide a way to a solution for you. Is your amp under warranty for the tubes?? If not I have...

    Opportunity to buy a used 5:25

    I thought it was a great deal also. I have to tell you I have had Fender most all my playing life starting with a Super Reverb 410 back in the early 70's. Then a Fender Twin that was a absolute monster....I followed that, when the Twin got to be more than I wanted to carry, with a Ampeg...

    Opportunity to buy a used 5:25

    I certainly have thought about whether or not to buy new long and hard and made the decision because the amp is perfect . Even if I bought brand new there is not guarantee it would not have a problem. The other positive is there is the transferrable warranty that still has four years. Finally...

    Opportunity to buy a used 5:25

    Wow....saw the amp today and I am impressed. It is in pristine new condition and comes with a great amp stand and a stand to hold a mike. The seller has the manual, warranty papers, and receipt showing it was bought in April or 2008 from an authorized dealer, Discount Music in Orlando Florida...

    Opportunity to buy a used 5:25

    The owner has said that he has played it around four times on stage in a church group. He has all the things you have mentioned and I checked with MB about the transferrable warranty. Seems you only need the orginal sales reciept to prove it came from a MB dealer. In this case it has. He bought...

    Opportunity to buy a used 5:25

    Hi all, I have a shot of buying a 5:25 that was bought locally last April. The seller has all the paperwork and receipt. He said that early on one of the tubes went down and he took it to a local authorized service center for a warranty repair. It was done sucessfully per the seller. The...

    Wanting to join the 5:50 club

    I actually called Mesa and asked how the warranty is transferred to a new owner within the 5 year warranty. "Chris" told me that a sales receipt is required for them to validate the warranty and I think if the warranty card has been sent in and is verified they will honor the warranty for the...

    5:25 or 5:50...that is the question

    D, Thanks for the response. Unfortunately Discount Music did not have a 112 version of the 5:25. I will do some researchlook and see if the local Sam Ash or GC has one. Yea the F-50 was a monster and for me it was over the top. It was sorta like the Prosonic I had. Although the Prosonic was a...

    5:25 or 5:50...that is the question

    Hi all....my name is Nubbs and I just found this forum and have been enjoying the threads. Yesterday I stopped by Discount Music, located here in central Florida to look at what they had new or used in amps under 35 pounds. Much to my surprise the sales guy steered me to a Mesa 5:25. It was a...
