Badlander 25 combo

Hey guys.

I tried one of these and was unimpressed. I prefer the Friedman JJ Jr.

It was Colonel Randall, in the library with the el84s

I think it was Aunt Lucy in Petaluma with a paring knife.

Even Ola doesn't get where he wants to go with it:

I had high hopes for this one. Like the mini dual rectifier. My Mark 5:25 watt head was a keeper though. All channels are excellent IMO. Wish they made a Triaxis with channel modules… like you know who.

I told you guys. Just buy the 50.

You did. And I did. (Just happened to, right before the 25 was released). Glad I did now - still sounds fantastic.

I’m not sure the 50 watt would have done it for me either. It never got above bedroom level in my testing so it was primarily preamp tone. It may be an excellent fit for others and just not a tone I was looking for. So far the only Mesa that has done it for me was the Mark 5:25 and it took some tenacity on dialing it in. As well as a willingness to disregard what I learned to do on other amps. Love that mini head through 2 1x10 creamback-loaded closed-back cabs. The mini-stack from hell IMO.

They don’t make a 100 combo.

Well, to be fair a Mark and a Badlander is apples/potatoes comparison. They’re both awesome, but so very, very different.
