Mesa Boogie Maverick 2x12 Combo

Small Combo 30W lamp, connectors classic reverb. Two channels (clean and lead) with a switch on the back that allows you to adjust the sound (fat / clean).

Equalization by CHANNELS, with volume and master.

UTILIZATION

This is the mesa. One branch, and it sounds.
on the other hand need a little time getting started to refine the setting.

The manual is useless. A good ear will do. The eq is effective.

Not easy at the start of dosing the distortion and volume balance between the two channels, but nothing insurmountable.

A sacred versatility. True versatility: It was not an amp for a type of music that stands in other genre. We have a real all-terrain that lends itself to jazz or big rock as long it is given a suitable partner (a good guitar, whatever ...).

SOUNDS

So for some it is given a quality guitar, it will respect the color of the microphones and the character of the instrument.
I spend a jazzy his medium ES 335 to the great big rock with an Ibanez.

Of course, there are some small adjustments to make if you are picky.

That said, if all the knobs were changed and the need to redo a eq in the urgency of an early concert, we get a good sound in no time moving.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 years.
I bought it for little in time becaufe the lights were changing.
I was fed up of lugging a head and a 4 / 12 by repeating, and I was pleasantly surprised to realize that his power was more than enough to ensure repeating, live, studio and even on larger scenes.

Giving him a little brother (1x12 "mesa), the projection is really optimal. I think it's really a sublime tool for a demanding ear in sound, but also in practice.

I would do this choice without any hesitation.
