Mesa Boogie California Tweed 6V6 4:FORTY
"Do Blondes have more fun ??!?!?!?"...
The is Mesa Boogie's new Single Channel, mid-power, "old school" offering aimed at all sounds Americana. Equipped with all the essential features you do need, none of the complexity you don't and bona fide delicious 6V6 Tone in every viable wattage with an addictive, inspiring feel guaranteed to keep your hands on the strings, your ears wide open and your eye on the prize.
In the twilight of the 1960s, San Francisco Bay Area amp repairman to the Stars, Randall Smith, was inspired to start building his own amplifiers after coming to a deep appreciation for the '50s Tweed circuits Leo Fender created. He loved their organic sounding voice, powerful controls and the way they smoothly transitioned from clean to clip and back again. So standing on the shoulders of a giant, Smith's (and the World's) first venture into a Boutique guitar amplifier saw the foundation built atop that wonderful, timeless sounding preamp.
Five Decades later Mesa returns to pay homage, yet also bring forward an exciting new realm of Tweed-based performance and authentic 6V6 character. The new California Tweed(TM)... harken back, bounce on forward, while never sacrificing one drop of golden California tone.
