Greetings everyone!
Rather fitting that a new Mesa message board goes up basically the same day I get my first Mesa amp.
My Tremoverb head came today. Maybe 2 or 3 really minor scuffs in the tolex, but other than that it seems to have been extremely well kept. Only has the Ch footswitch. I would probably like to at least get the effect loop switch and maybe the tremolo switch. Reverb is usually set it and forget it for me though.
With that said I am wondering if anyone here knows where I can get a custom switch with all three (effects, trem, verb) or maybe all 4 switches in one footswitch chassis???
I spent about 2 hours on it tonight while the wife was away so I got to give her a little juice. I only had my Strat w/ HSS into it so far. Found some great tones in it for sure! I really like both modes on Channel 1 so I had the Orange cloned over to Red so I could footswitch between the Clean Mode on one channel and the Vintage Gain on the other. This amp should definitely fit my needs very well. Unfortunately the Wednesday jam sessions I have recently started doing with some guys is postponed until next week so it'll have to wait to see how she sits in the mix.
These active controls are new to me and will take some getting used to. Especially the Mid control. Definitely adds a lot of brightness to the tone.
I think I will wait to post more of a review on my thoughts on the tones from the amp until I spend more time with it.
Anyway....Nice to be a member of the Boogie Board and an owner of a Mesa!!!
