Hi I'm happy to have bought my first Mesa. A nice blue LSC.
After fooling with a DRRI and a couple of other Fender amps I bought an LSC on the bay. Best move I've made. It is a versatile tone machine that is capable of producing the best clean tones I've heard. I wanted something in between a Fender BF and Tweed tone wioth just enough bounce and lushness in the mids.
With my R7 and R0 Lp's I was able to dial in a beauitiful lush harmonic voice with just the right amount of shimmer. What an organic alive sounding amp. The DRRi I returned to GC sounded sterile overly brite yet hooded and dry in comparison.
This is a tweakers amp and requires a bit of dialing in -the tone controls are very interactive. I can't imagine the tonal possibilites with the MK IV and all those dual function nobs.
In any event I love the LSC. I'll have to post pictures when I get a chance.
BTW I ordered a full compliment of JJ tubes with EL34L power tubes for my LSC. I hope to get a bluesbreaker tone with the set up.
