[brianf]

Randell Smith announces "since brianf has had so much trouble finding tubes that don't rattle we are getting into the Solid State game"!!!

This is a sick april fools joke, isn't it?

 

[musicbox]

well, they're not making it because brianf wants it, but they are making it. itll use mosfets like the big bass amps. i think i heard something like 500 watts or more to blow away marshalls mode4. tube preamp obviously. don't know when to expect it though. might have the preamp from the recto's.

Maybe since it's transtube ,they'll make it affordable so every 14 yr old can have one. I can hear it now....."oh dude,I have a Boogie too"

 

[musicbox]

thats probably the goal. cheap sells! they'll build 'em in america, and have all the parts made in china.

The story goes that he wants to get into the under 300.00 price point with built in effects.

so much for "botique" :lol:

 

[brianf]

The article goes on to say. "Smith says "I can see that within 10 years Mesa will be out of the tube amp business entirely" 100% solid state. I'm shocked at how good some of the new moddelling product works"
































Oh never mind it's April 2 now.

I would be lying if I said that for a moment, I didn't think to myself, "what the hell is the world coming to" Then I remembered April fools and thought, "Thank God. It was just a bad dream."
