Mesa/Boogie Buying Guide

Oozing with ridiculously sweet, tube-saturated tone, Mesa/Boogie guitar amps are your sure-fire ticket to pro sound and dependability. Whether you require crystal-cleans or the heaviest chugs, there's a Mesa/Boogie amp for you:

∙ Mark Series: The series that started it all. Originally crafted as heavily modified Fender Princeton amps, the Mark Series shows off what you can do when you push an amp past its limits. Today's Mark V amps are the result of decades of constant fine tuning.

∙ Rectifier Series: THE sound of modern guitar for over 30 years. These versatile amps offer players every option they need to dial in the sound that's bouncing around in their head. From the classic Dual Rec to the more recent Badlander, the Rectifier Series still sets the standard for contemporary guitar tone.

∙ California Tweed Series: When you need a distinctively vintage voice. Inspired by the classic tweed amps of the '50s, the California Tweed's sun-soaked pedigree will have you rethinking what a modern amp can do. Don't let the amp's single channel fool you -- the versatile Multi-Watt dial physically changes both wattage and power tube configuration simultaneously to unlock complex sonic changes.

∙ Fillmore Series: Unleash the experimental sounds of the earliest Mark revisions. Named for the famed venues once found on both coasts of the US, the Fillmore Series takes vintage tweed tones and hot-rods them for a decidedly Mesa sound. Two identical, footswitchable channels allow you to sculpt your own sonic Jekyll & Hyde.

∙ Triple Crown Series: Built for those who believe there's no such thing as too much gain, the Triple Crown Series takes the already gnarly gain structure of the Rectifer and pushes it even further. Loaded with three independent, footswitchable channels, these amps can get clean, but really shine when fully saturated.

When you need consistent and propulsive sound night after night, it's time to reach for a Mesa/Boogie speaker cabinet. From the small but ferocious 1x12" Recto cab to the large and (clearly) in-charge Rectifier Standard 4x12", Mesa cabinets are built like tanks and will have you sounding your best every time you plug in.

Building upon decades of experience, Mesa/Boogie's Subway Series represents the latest in bass amp technology. While these amps might be lightweight and portable, the Subway Series doesn't cut any corners on tone. Pair your head with one (or two...) of the Subway bass cabs and voila: a recipe for full, rich bass tones that'll clearly project all the way to the back of the venue.
