Re: Lets talk about ALL Mesa Boogies. Come in and brag about you're please!!!
had a 50 cal. simple but nice tones. it was portable but to get the best tones you had to adjust the single tone stack every time you switched channels-this annoyed me and I sold it
next Tremoverb combo-this had a cool clean tone-its midrange was kinda lacking and you had to crank it to get the cool clipping tone for distortion so loud I had to sell it.
next TriAxis gen 2. I still have this but I have to replace a few tubes-It has a cool recto kinda grind. I am not into rack stuff so it sits unused
next a rocket 440+ - this has 4 jenson 10 inch alnico speakers. The tremolo is good on this amp. The distortion is tight and focused because of the 4 10 inch speakers and the el84 tubes. It has a wonderful tight low end thunk. the secret to this amp is to turn down the treble to 4, up the midrange to 8 or above, turn the bass to 4 and crank up the presence to about 8 or above. you will get both a glorious distortion and a punchy clean tone. This amp to me sounds great with humbuckers. They really sound good with the el84 tubes and 10 inch jenson alnico speakers. This is my favorite boogie amp yet. It does cleans and distortion well and with good reverb and tremolo its a great amp.
