Finally got the F 30 Boogie out today live.

Several here asked about the little amp and how it was voiced right after i got it so here she is.. Been distracted by the Tornado hit and a couple other issues so took a while but finally pulled her out and swapped the PRS MT 15 for it last week at Church. Wanted some thing a little different and less the metal monster more a classic rock amp so in came the little F 30. REALLY like this little amp its very much like my Subway Rocket in feel and tone but has an absolute jaw dropping clean. Today's set didn't give me a chance to use it though. Here is a clip from this morning with my Washburn Silverado Strat running the Surfer II's. Really happy with this little rig!

For reference this is the little Mesa Subway miced I own and have wanted a head that was similar in tone to go with it for a number of years think this little monster might just work out ! Need to pull the PRS Custom 24 out next week and record the combo to see how close it really is.

I can't help but picturing Slayer busting through the wall like Steven Tyler in the video for the Walk This Way remake with Run-DMC. lol
They're getting too old to do that without risking injury.

Glad it sounded good. I still pine about the F30 that I couldn't afford back in college.

"has an absolute jaw dropping clean." I've got the discontinued Express [ pre-eq model ] 5:25 with the V30. Seems I bought it for the crunch factor and over the years have gravitated to using the clean channel with a touch of boost. Yes, I agree with you, the cleans are that good.

I totally missed this series when they were out. Cleans are just amazing and the crunch while is not a high gain amp are very usable. This amp is a tool I didn't know I needed for some of the things I do. It's making me adjust my playing but I'm really digging this little amp.
Here is the low down from Mesa on these they were built 2003 to 2006 looks like.
