I've never heard of that model. But I haven't been around too many Mesa's to be familiar w/ their products
Joe, it's 22 watts, and tubes. Mine doesn't have the built in graphic eq, but I still love it. It's got 2 EL84's and 5 12AX7's in it. It has Electro Harmonix tubes in it now, but I'm itching to try tung-sols.
... and then the wheel fell off.

Ron,
That sounds like an awesome little amp there. It probably sounds really good for its size also. I'd like to check that out sometime.

i suck at typing, so it'll take way too long- its something like 30 some guitars and 15 heads. i will say that at the end of the day i will always love my two channel Mesa Dual Rec above all else; i bought when i didn't have two nickels to rub together and ate Chunky soup and Top Ramen for like 6 months straight and drove the shittiest car on the road to buy it and two USA BC Rich Warlocks back in 99... i didn't have a couch for years when i moved out and had a 13 inch TV forever but had super bad ass tone before almost anyone was really playing Mesas- and i still haven't heard a new Mesa that can keep up with a 2 channel ...

Amen. I traded a bunch of stuff for my 2 channel Dual Rec back in '98 or so. I then sold it after I moved to Pittsburgh. I ended up getting another one through Craiglist.
