Re: Went to GC Today....
Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out what kind of music Mesas aren't good for. You got all the metal bands using Rectos, Marshall guys flocking to the Stiletto, Deluxe guys loving the Blue Angel, VOX guys using Mavericks and LoneStar Specials.
Didn't Metallica use Mark IIIs?
Santana?
Petrucci?
Lee Ritenour and Larry Carlton?
Charlie Daniels and Toy Caldwell doing country with vintage LPs and Mark Series amps?
The Stones?
Baffling.
And yeah, I would rather have a Stiletto than a Marshall. I'll take my Mark IIIs and IV over any Fender--I had a roomful of vintage BF Fenders and sold them, keeping only the Mesas. And for sheer versatility, my Maverick does so much more than an AC30, and does EVERYTHING better; AND has never had a meltdown like most AC30s are apt to do.
