Wounded Paw blender pedal - you ever get one?
Not yet. You mean the one in a volume pedal enclosure right?
Nope. And I still want a battering ram!

The head would have separated out at +/- 30lbs.Mesa is shorthand for massively heavy. That is all.

Yup. 6 6l6GC power tubes, 3 12ax7 preamp tubes. Graphic EQ. Gain and master. Very clean pretty much wouldn't overdrive unless you cranked the gain.Was the Buster! a 200-watter? That seems light.

Toroidal transformers(doughnut shaped) - 1/2 the weight, better efficiency, cooler,less hum, less stray magnetic field. The square pricks are going the way of the dinosaur for audio electronics.If it only weighs 30lbs. the transformers are undersized.

Hey youse guys.
If any of you still peruse TB, keep your eyes peeled for someone needing a five string bass for free. Of course, use your filters to weed out douchebags who are not worthy. I won’t be able to tell without researching who they are, and I only go there occasionally to surf classifieds looking for my old bass.
Thanks youse
True. They had to hand-wind those pricks back then.I kinda doubt 70's tube amps used toroids.
Buster! was a 1990s model. The 400+ is a monster tho. Plenty dirt.I kinda doubt 70's tube amps used toroids.

I hear incredible things about the D-180. Had a master which they say controls harmonics.And thus concludes my vast and detailed knowledge of Mesa Boogie history.
Yeah, the volume pedal one. Really joy to just rock the pedal between two effects chains or just - blend. I had the other one that is like an A/B box but sold that prick on ebay. Wasn't bad but like electric windows, no going back.Not yet. You mean the one in a volume pedal enclosure right?

A lot of the tech 21 stuff looks interesting but I've never had a sit down with anything but one of their older model comps.
Added or should I say enhanced the noise in my signal chain. Can't have that.
