Ok....so Im going to try the express series tomoroow....but Im preety sure shops will rarely have both versions and will essentially have the combo versions...
I am really interested in buying this amp in the head version.
the question is:
25w or 50w?
I will buy the head with a 2x12 cab and we are two guitarists in my band.
Even if we like to play quite loud, Ive heard that mesas were really loud for the wattage announced.........Id like to have enough clean headroom but its really not a probleme if the sound distorts a bit....
so Ive got two questions:
1. 25w or 50w head for band?
2. with the new mesa amps, 90per cent of the sound comes from the preamp....but some people say that the 25w due to the el84 is more british in the crunch than the other version......so as Ive said, 90per cent of the sound comes from the preamp.....so is the difference really there or not?
Thanks
