I have been giving a lot of thought and speculation to the picture I saw recently of an unknown Mesa model in Metallica's Studio. If you look at the picture the branding of is a centered plate that says "Mesa Engineering". Also what I was seeing was a gap between what would be channels 2 and 3 with a switch and a knob there. The graphic EQ was also present within the model in question so I do believe the overall structure of it is based on the Mark series but judging from the position of the camera and the distance away it does seem to be a little bit larger. in length and height. I do believe the switch in the middle could be related to tube rectification for a rectifier like channel because of the added length giving it the space for extra tubes.
My thoughts personally tell me that he would release this at some point during the time of them touring because of the new album hype. If this comes out and can nail every tone of hetfield's I would not mind shilling out my bank account and social security number for it considering I just paid my arm and left leg for a Mark 5.
Let me know what your opinions are in the thread and I would love to discuss the tonal possibilities of this soon to be (fingers crossed) Mesa Monster. 8)
