Hi everyone, my name is Doug and I just got my first Mesa a few days ago. Its a single rectifier 50 solo, series 2 and I love it. Bought it used but this guy took great care of it, looks new, not a scratch on her, got the footswitch and the cover for the head too. Its my first tube amp and needless to say Im very impressed. Im coming from a Marshall AVT50 head which I liked but the Mesa is a beast, I play classic and modern metal and classic rock with that metal edge to it. Was in a band but due to creative diff we dont play too much, so Im now just jammin with couple buddies tryin go get a band started back up, thanks for havin me and look forward to learnin anything and everything Mesa, here are a few pics of my gear..........................Oh and I just ordered a Weber 100watt attenuator, this Mesa sounds killer turned up but my ears were ringin LOL
