Mesa 2:50 Power amp

[mxr2000]

I made a trade now I own one of this units, but I can't find almost any info or feedback for this unit here and other forums, so any review about this unit or opinion will be appreciated.. My plans is to use it start a rig at home using a Digitech GSP1101 preamp ...

What are you looking for?

BTW I own the GSP1101 and it has some great tones but it doesn't replace my triaxis for boogie tones. Just be careful when you set it up because i had it on some wrong settings (i had it set to "tube power amp" instead of "flat") and I thought the models sounded like crap. Now that i have it set properly the models sound pretty good. The icing on the cake are all of the models of the pedals though as they really put a priceless tag on this unit. This is the first effects unit i've owned where i can go from hendrix tones to metal tones with one stomp. If you want a strong Boogie tone the GSP falls a bit short IMO but it is passable with a bunch of tweaking using non conventional settings.

While you are looking at the GSP you might want to do some research on Axe Fx by fractal audio.

All I have heard is that the 2:50 is not quite as warm sounding as the older 50:50 it replaced. But, it is still a good PA nonetheless I'm sure. I think it has the ability to run 34s as well.
