Looking for a punchy, tube bass sound in a small package?...then the Mesa Walkabout bass amp is for you. This little amp fits the demands of any bass player who’s traveling light and still needs huge sound. The Walkabout has plenty of power to fill small clubs or coffee-house type venues. Weighing in at a mere 13 pounds, this 300 watt cigar-box delivers a tone that’s second to none.

From the Mesa Website...

Walkabout™ FEATURES:

Handbuilt in the USA

300 Watts @ 4 Ohms (165 @ 8), Simul-State™ Power / 6 Tube Driven Power MOSFET’s, 2x12AX7

Active/Passive Input Switch

4 Stage Vacuum Tube Preamplifier featuring Gain, Active Bass & Treble, Passive Mid and a 3-Band Semi Parametric EQ that provides 15db of cut or boost from 30Hz to 12K Hz

Main Output Level Control

FX Loop w/True “Hard” Bypass Switch

Balanced Direct Line Output with Level Control & Ground Lift Switch

2– 1/4“ Speaker Outputs

Fan Cooled

12”W x 12”D x 3.5”H

With the exception of some scratches on the top (and a couple minor ones on the bottom), this head is in great condition. It has had the updates by Mesa suggested by their technical bulletin and includes the Mesa carrying bag.

Price is $565 shipped to the lower 48. I accept PayPal or a US Postal Money order. The only trade I may consider is for a Mesa Big Block 750, and of course I would throw in some cash for that one.

Send me a PM or shoot me an e-mail at peabody59@hotmail.com if you have any questions. Thanks for looking!

I just bought an M-Pulse 360 off of ebay for $525. It's freakin awesome! I was looking at the walkabouts, lucky for me this came up at a great price. Which do you guys think is better the mesa power house cabs, or the Eden XLT cabs?

I just got a line on a Mesa Big Block 750 and I have to add some cash to my PayPal account.

$565 shipped to the first person who wants it....

If it doesn't go now, it's off to eBay. Don't wait too long......

It's still available. I have it listed on eBay, but there are no bids on it yet. Once I receive a bid, it will be officially unavailable. Just let me know. Thanks!
