Trying to get a used Mesa Combo

Sign in to disble this ad
Just wondering if its a good deal or not but its a Mesa/Boogie combo amp 2x10. Guitar center has a price drop on it and went from a listed price of 1199.00 to $499.99. Im just wondering if its a good deal on an amp? or should i opt for an ampeg b2-48 combo they have for $329.99 (4x8" combo amp)

Im not too familiar with combo amps. I been running my churches david eden wt-800 for 16 years and I have been spoiled by it.

I've heard bad things about the B2s. A Mesa Boogie will always be valuable.

well, if it is a Venture 2x10, that's a steal at $499 if its in good shape. It's basically an MPulse600 head driving a Mesa 2x10 cab. I'd say the MPulse600 amp section is worth the $499 all by itself. It will drive an extension cab very well too, so if you got this and a 1x15, 2x12 or 4x10, you'd have an amazing, modular rig for sure.

Don't walk... run down there and buy it. I have a Venture 210 and it was the most crushing combo. That's a good deal.

That's a steal of a price on a truly powerful combo. +1 to adding a 15, or 2 more 10's to that thing, and really let it sing.
