    Pros
    • + Tight, Punchy, Deep Tube Sound
    • + Made in USA
    • + Super Portable and Light
    • + Flexible Tone
    • + Mesa Quality/ High resale value
    Cons
    • - Head doesnt lock onto cabs, so it can vibrate off.
    • - Price is high, but well worth it fro what you're getting.
    I am ultra impressed!! And that’s very rare.

    Super light, 40lbs with cables, 19′ tall, 15″ wide, deep, punchy tone for days, 400 watts as it sits, 800 with more cabs, the ability to add 3 more cabs, the head happily pulls double duty for very large gigs on top of my Mesa PH412’s, and it’s made in America!

    I started out wanting the best sounding practice amp, in a very small light package.

    Here were my needs:

    • All-tube sound.
    • Solid State for low maint/ high reliability.
    • A head that could also be used for large gigs.
    I can’t believe how good it sounds and how loud it is. As a player who normally runs through a V4b or a Heritage SVT, or a Strategy 88 through two Mesa PH412’s… My expectations for a practice/ coffee house amp were very low.

    This has got to be as close as an Earthling could possibly get to the tone that I’m used to, while staying well within my parameters for weight and size.

    Nice job Mesa
