NAD: Mesa TransAtlantic

Post by Conway »

Mesa TA15 with 1x12 Lonestar cab. The amp has power options of 5/15/25 watts (5 & 15 class A, 25 watts using some special Mesa voltage burst and sag technology). 5 watts is good for home or 15 with master volume way down.

2 channels - Green (left) is based on a Vox preamp/power amp with one volume control and a high cut. Optional switch changes between clean and pushed Vox amp. But pull the high cut and it acts as a master volume, letting you wind up the Voxish breakup at home friendly volume. Awesome! Red channel (right) has 3 voicings - Fender Tweed/Marshall/Mesa Boogie. Fender is clean and very usable, Marshall is great, haven't really tried the Mesa Boogie.

Loves pedals and all the guitars I've tried on it. And it glows blue when you power it up.

After reading the Mesa forums, what I'd really like to do is get a 1x12 Thiele cab to make a mini stack of mega-awesomeness.

Thiele cab is awesome, it sounds huge for the size. I use one with my Mini Rec, sounds at least as big as my 2x12!!

Agreed! If I owned an amp like this I would never be able to actually use it, as our eldest son would claim it as a nightlight :D Blooooo!
