I have just created an account here as I am looking for advice on which mesa boogie I should buy. I have decided on Mesa Boogie but I have now found myself spoilt for choice!
I play in a progressive rock band, probably on the boundary between hard rock and metal. I'm not really too fussed about reverb as I don't use it very often and I have a reverb pedal for that anyway. I would say my desired sound was similar to that of John Petrucci. A heavy sound but with clearly depicted notes. Quite hard to describe but you can clearly hear every note being picked which really helps when playing fast. I would really appreciate any advice from Mesa Boogie owners, past owners, or just anyone who has played one! My price range is around the combo versions of Rect-o-verb, F-50 & Mark IV. I am looking more for a combo just for practicality.
Cheers =^)
