thodrik Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Ooff Nice, here is my own 'triple'. I am now down to one cabinet and it is impractically heavy and loud, so I need to get at least one 2x12 or 4x10 (preferably 4 ohm) to add to my collection. Most of my gigging is with the Mesa Walkabout combo which is nearly out of shot. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually has a bit less EQ flexibility compared to the other Mesa heads I have tried/owned, being the M6 Carbine and the Walkabout. However, as a mid-heavy, slightly dirty rock tone the Big Block is great. The overdrive channel is great too, I just crank the gain and it becomes one of the best fuzz tones I have ever tried. Its definitely a 'will never sell' head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weapons-grade touring rig but definitely need roadies to move the thing! I have got flight cases for the whole rig aswell and it takes up half the garage! haha. But it is an Ampeg-killer too. Seriously grunty and ridiculous headroom. I adore the 4x12s too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahpook Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I had the pleasure of playing through a Marshall VBA stack a few times at a rehearsal studio. Amazing amps. I simply didn't know my bass could sound that flippin' good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had absolutely unreal levels of headroom. I was very impressed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
