Two combo amps: 65Amps Ventura and Mesa Express Plus 5:25

Post by StumbleFingers »

I'd like to sell one of these and keep one. Both are pro-level hand built American amps. Both are 1x12 combos in a tan-brown color scheme and weigh only about 30lbs. Great grab-and-go amps!

65Amps Ventura
- 6V6 and EF86 based amp, a gritty Fender style gain
- Two channels and footswitchable Bump (boost)
- Continuously variable power scaling from 20w down to 2w
- Super simple controls - tone, gain, volume
- Includes custom cover and custom LED footswitch

Mesa Express Plus 5:25
- EL84 based amp, smooth American gain with a hint of Brit
- Two channels and footswitchable 5-band EQ, volume boost and reverb
- Variable power settings: 25w, 15w, 5w
- Super powerful controls - Independant full control set per channel, two modes per channel, plus a separate 5-band EQ and contour section
- Includes cover and massive Mesa footswitch

Take either one for $1100. I'll consider full or partial trades for small vintage tube amps (esp. Fender) and quality hollowbodies and Teles if they're red. (I only play red guitars, it's a disease.)

A Twin is too much amp for me these days. My sweet spot is more Princeton/Deluxe/AC15/etc.
