Yeah, Mesa's are great. Still a bit overpriced, though...(not as overpriced as a Marshall, of course )------------- "my kingdom for a horse!" (W. Shakespeare, "Richard III") |

As I am a bass player, I must vote Ampeg. But not for guitars. for your six-string, it's a tough call between Marshall and Mesa. It all depends I think on what kind of guitar you have. Mesas have huge sound and can be very versatile (just look at Petrucci's rig on the Budokan DVD. holy crap.) But there's something to be said for that special sound that comes when a Gibson guitar is played straight thru a cranked Marshall. It's a beautiful thing. ------------- http://www.myspace.com/altaic" rel="nofollow - http://www.myspace.com/altaic ALTAIC "Oceans Down You'll Lie" coming soon |

Off the list, Mesa Boogie. The only Marshall I like a lot is the JVM series. From Mesa Boogie, they have the Mark IV, absolutely amazing sounding amp. -------------

| old Mesa-Boogies. A good amount of non-digital fender amps are good too. I like my princeton and fender bass practice amp which actually gives me the guitar tone I like the most. |

Vox ac30 rules. Unfortunately, Fender & Marshall inhabit the "classic" rock space; Mesa and other "boutique" amps occupy a higher place; but Vox is the one that can do clear & clean, and lean & mean. But the AC30cc2 is still 970CAD plus taxes  But luckily I live in Canada, so I have Traynor amps that manage to fit smaller budgets & still blow away most other amps. The YCV40 is the best deal around; then the ycv50 for that darker sound, and finally the ycv80 where you have fender like clean & marshall dirt. The money you save can be spent on other essentials - Beer ! ------------- "Here I am talking to some of the smartest people in the world and I didn't even notice,” Lieutenant Columbo, episode The Bye-Bye Sky-High I.Q.

I owned a Mesa Studio Series for years, great amp, I've also been impressed by GK and Seymour Duncan.. I think Dave Gilmour was using Mesa/Boogie heads with Fender speakers for awhile, great combo! |

Check out the Vox Tonelab SE/LE ... it offers many sounds, including that of the Vox AC30. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

| Had I the money, I'd buy an Orange amp set. At the moment though, I'm restricted to a Fender Deluxe 85, which would be good enough if it worked without a kick on the side. |

I always use Mesa's at guitar center, I wish I had the money for one though. They're excellent.  -------------
