Mesa Boogi M-Pulse 600/Venture: sleeve, head box etc

[basshead56]

Hi guys,

Anyone know if there is a 'head box' or sleeve out there to make the M-pulse 600 look a bit more like the Venture version here: [url="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mesa-Boogie-Bass-rig-M-Pulse-600-with-15-and-2x10-cabinets?item=120913249172&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D1%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8448953584204704263"]http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mesa-Boogie-Bass-rig-M-Pulse-600-with-15-and-2x10-cabinets?item=120913249172&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D1%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8448953584204704263[/url]

I like the old-school look of the head in this example. It'd be great to track down something similar for my new Mesa...

I'm also interested in that... The case I use for my M-Pulse 600 is ugly and heavy as hell!!

Have you tried emailing your local Mesa distribution centre?
They got me a price etc for a head case for my M6.
cheers

You can get both, slanted and flat. Email Oreste at Westside [email protected]. He's a great guy but be prepared to take out a second mortgage.

BTW the M-Pulse 600 has a flat (i.e., vertical) front whilst the Venture is angled, so if you have the former it won't fit in the angled case. That would be an extremely expensive mistake. The M-Pulse case is still lovely and very retro looking, just not as big as that you've pictured.

+1 for Oreste, he is a top guy.

I was quoted £250 for a M6 head case, although it looked very cool, I just couldn't bring myself to spend that much.
I got a nice SKB in the end.

The case for the M-Pulse head is very similar to the case in this listing http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mesa-Boogie-Big-Block-750-Bass-Guitar-Amplifier-Powerhouse-2x12-Bass-Cabinet-/221020340874?pt=UK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL&hash=item3375d6c28a#ht_4095wt_1173
