Doug West of Mesa Boogie - Hour long interview

[Desertdweller]

Man he's such a great guy, very casual, open, and honest about the challenges in the marketplace and where Mesa sits right now. I had no idea after the first batch of the Badlander they couldn't get transformers made for 2 years, which somewhat neutered the launch of that amp.

The change in transformer manufacturer is the reason Mesa couldn't sell in the EU due to strict electrical recertification requirements.
