Geddys nose Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) The Mesa was revalved with JJ's late last year (The best I've used) and only used for practice once since, It's in a Gator Shock mount case also bought late last year. The Mesa is in Superb condition easily 9.5 out of 10 . I've had a few valve amps over the years and a few 400+'s and keep coming back to them for the tone IMO they are up there with anything thats out there. I'm after cash only and Will split them £850 Mesa, [s]Barefaced £550[/s]. I'll get better Pics up tomorrow and I'd prefer collection but I do get around the NW at weekends so I might be able to meet up somewhere. Cheers Si Edited March 19, 2013 by Geddys nose
Wooks79 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 If you choose to split, please drop me a PM about the Vintage
Geddys nose Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Thanks Wooks You'll be first choice if I do and your close. Need to get down and take some proper photo's . Cheers
big rob Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 If you do decide to split in the end give us a shout on the 400+ Cheers Big Rob
Merton Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Si is a gent to deal with, and I can vouch for the Vintage - it was one of the first 3 ever made and is a cracking cab, the only reason I downsized was I needed to fit the cab in the boot of my car and the Vintage didn't!
Kiwi Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 One hell of a rig. Difficult to think how this could be improved on...apart from weight of the head.
Geddys nose Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 I've PM'ed everyone and its still available at the moment, If I split it then the Head is £850 and Cab £550 . Thanks for all the nice comments it is indeed a nice rig, I fired it up last night for rehersal with a Ric and it was just perfect.
charic Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 The head is just a touch rich for me when I take into account service costs over the years. Ive decided im not quite ready for all valve (need a band doing something regular first) Therefore have a free bump!
Conan Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Ooooohhhh.... I wonder how two Vintages would sound...
Merton Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Do you want to cause a Richter 10 earthquake in Britain??
andytoad Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Out of interest .. What makes it so light? Custom speakers, special casing material? Both?

Both?[/quote] Not "custom" speakers, just very high quality Eminence Neodymium drivers (which are light). Thin but strong wood with lots of bracing and strengthening. The Vintage is no longer made, but the Barefaced ethos is best taken from the horse's mouth (as it were)...
