Re: New Pedal Day
I was using my 68 Bassman and either my V30/Greenback Avatar 4x12 or my drip edge Dual Showman 2x12 with a Cannabis Rex and a Texas Heat... most likely the 2x12. Either way, it's pretty far from a Mesa. But this pedal is just straight up rad. Thanks for the compliment. It's understandable that it may sound Santana-esque in some spots, as the graphic EQ really lets you dial in that tone should you desire it.

Re: New Pedal Day
Well, that sounded really nice! Kinda Santana-ish in some spots. What amp did you use? It really retains that MESA sound ...

Re: New Pedal Day
Long overdue, but I finally haz clips!
This is not meant to be a demo of the Mesa Flux Five by any means. It's just me and some friends getting together and jamming. I'm using one of my PRSi on this track... I want to say it was my WLH loaded McCarty. I used a few different effects here and there, but IIRC the Mesa was on the whole time.
And yeah, my bassist is using a Bass VI. It's awesome and makes for rad guitar/bass interplay.

Don't need another gain pedal as I am happy with my Bass Big Muff PI + Malekko Sloika stack but I have been interested in getting an EQ for awhile for fine tuning or even as a huge mid boost option.

Re: New Pedal Day
I wasn't able to get my rig together in time for work, so it looks like I'll just have to wait until Tuesday to really open up the Mesa. Oh well, I can wait two days.

I'm going to take my board, amp, and a few axes to work with me tomorrow so I can crank it after work at my boss's warehouse. That will give me a great idea of what sounds and feels like at gigging volumes. And hopefully I'll be jamming on tuesday, so I'll find out how it works in a band mix. I'll report back after each of the experiences.
And yeah, it's just awesome having the Mesa EQ in a pedal. If I had the space, I'd love to have the standalone eq.
That's good to hear. I really liked what I heard when I played it. But it was with an unfamiliar guitar through an Express 5:25+ at the shop, and I was keeping it pretty low (it still sounded really good).

You can also considerably roll back the gain and have almost a clean boost thing happening with it and still have plenty of gain on tap if you wanted to kick it in. The volume knob itself is at unity at around 9 o'clock so there's a heck of a lot even on just the low side to make your notes jump out.
I'm looking forward to hear how it cuts in the band mix JordanLast edited by That90'sGuy; 10-25-2014, 06:59 PM.
