Hi Gang,
I love my Roadking. It is the most versatile amp I have EVER owned, the tone is awesome and I can't fault it except for one thing.... Jeez it's heavy!
And lugging it around to gigs is becoming a little annoying.
If.... I did the unthinkable and decide to trade it, what would be a reasonable Mesa alternative, ideally I want a combo that isn't going to break my back carrying it up stairs to the gig
For the music i'm playing I currently setup the king with a clean channel using 4 x 6L6's, then go for some Brit crunch with 2 x EL34's, still keeping it reasonably restrained with a bit more gain with 2 x 6L6's and for the 4th channel it's still 2 x 6L6's but with added filth for high gain craziness.
But to be honest I spend most of my time on channel 2 and 1. I do find the solo function very useful and would like to keep that functionality if possible.
Any recommendations of other Mesas to look at? A Mk V perhaps?
