Mesa/Boogie Official Club Thread...Part #2

[Rycebag]

AFAIK there WAS a sig. change in that the newer models do not require the pedal to use the OD channel or mute. Those controls are now available on the faceplate. IME Mesa can and will do the updates-I'd contact them if yours needs the pedal for these functions.

Yeah my amp is only capable of the mute and od via footswitch. do they do it free of charge?

Picked up a Black Face Walkabout and extension cab.

If I need slightly more muscle...

Is the M6 really more muscle than the WA stack?

I think you can deduce the answer to that all by yourself, LOL. If they do work, they obviously gotta charge, but I have no clue how much it'd be.

I guess. I still have 3 more years of warranty on it

True, but the warranty is very long compared to virtually all the competition and is there to cover failure, not provide half a decade of upgrades to make it as new. IMO it's quite reasonable. If they upgraded older units for free it'd give them an incentive NOT to improve them, and probably push them under water anyway.

Re: Mesa upgrading older models...

If it ain't broke, why fix it?

I was just wondering if they did do that. its not like I need to change those two pull knobs. It's just cool to know they do that.

That sentence does not really go with bass players and GAS

Lets see...I have two upgraded Titan V-12s one running a 4/12 Mesa Neo cab (best cab I've heard yet) and the other running an SWR Megoliath 8/10. This is my practice rig cause it's just too big for gigs! Can I git in??

 

[KAOSBass]

Can I join?

 

[RickenBoogie]

Nice stuff, guys.

It's got a "little" more headroom. They really are totally different animals and I really prefer the WA for it's tone with my SR5. The Carbine sounds great with a J bass. The WA stack has been more than enough ever since I picked it up. Great modular set up.

What do you mean by "upgraded"? Killer rigs, by the way

I've scanned thru the 15 pages here but didn't notice if anyone had reviewed the Mesa Boogie Scout Radiator cabinet. I'm interested in it to be used w/ my GK700.

 

[Sten]

There is a separate thread for the Walkabout and the Scout, you can find the part III here:

(Parts I and II reahed their 1000 post limit). Happy reading

 

[pedro]

Many thanks.

 

[Neil]

Just got my M9. Man this head is a beast! Power & headroom for days. It's quite a bit louder than the M6 I'll be unloading shortly.

 

[Chef]

Well, I just got an M3...and I'll tell you what, it's really pretty impressive.
As an M6 and Walkabout owner, I was prepared to be a little underwhelmed, and I am absolutely not, even a little.

It's got smack, and tone.

Who knew...
