I'll check it out. Give me another reason to regret selling it.

This has been my only Mesa.

I loved using it as a clean boost, flavorer. Like an idiot, I sold it around 8 yrs ago.

I still have mine. I've thought about selling it many times but never could bring myself to do it. I gigged with just that pedal into a Super Reverb for quite a while.

Holy f**k! What a collection!!

Talk to me about the California tweed. My impression initially was that it’s a mesa-Ford DR but obviously tweed is in the name

To follow up on this I set the amp up.

It definitely isn't good for me with humbuckers, but, running it with single coils and it is AMAZING! This is coming off of having the 1964 AC50 setup right before it.

Electra Dyne and Trad 4x12 for band practices:

Picked up the smaller Dyne head, too:

Smaller head and 2x12 for gigs:

Definitely modded lol. Mine didn't sound like that.

Smart move. I used mine mainly as a clean boost into a Traynor YGM-3 or Carvin Legacy I.
Rarely did I use the lead side.

Here's a bunch of different boogies I've had over the years. Most of these saw time live with bands I've played with.

My mid 2000s rig, nice hybrid of solid state and tubes:

My late 2000s rig:

My circa 2015-2017 rig, this was honestly a bit much but I did play shows with this. I modded the TR to a series effects loop as well:

Then I plastidipped the triple rec and blacked out the knobs:

My JP2C and RV25. I had the RV25 for about a year, and I've had a few Mini recs and the Mark V25 as well. The JP2C I had for about 5 years and just recently sold it to a friend:

So those are the Mesa amps I no longer own. I'll post a pic of the current family in a few days. It's no secret I'm a total Mesa fanboy.

I hear it's a great pedal! I've had a few of the others and they are awesome.

Speaking of pedals, I forgot to mention that I have one of these I really like it.

I was told it could replicate the Drive function on the Clean channel of my TC-50 and it does a pretty good job of that. It was really frustrating that the Drive function couldn't be switched by MIDI. I got the pedal so that I didn't have to go back to the amp and flick the switch every time I wanted drive.

Welcome Coalface!

I like that 5 band EQ. I've been thinking of picking one up for some time.

I agree. It’s way more versatile than what one would expect with a pedal like this. Top notch Mesa quality even in their pedals. Unfortunately it will be this pedal and various forms of modeling to get my Mesa Boogie fix but I’m fine with that

So much goodness in here

Late to the party but I will play anyway

Grid Slammer into a Badlander is a great setup.

Absolutely. I thought I would enjoy the DynaPlex more but it isn't necessary on this board, imo.

I was surprisingly impressed by the Grid Slammer. It gets little mention on the gear forums.

Maybe now, but when it first came out it was discussed a lot. It's a great overdrive. Being that it's a little boxy and has a bit more bass than a standard TS, it really is a great mix with the Badlander amps.
