SOLD - Mesa Big Block 750 - Now £500 £700 Littlehampton, W Sx

[WalMan]

Acquired this from Silverfoxnik a while back and love it, but it’s proving too heavy for me nowadays ☹️

Comes in the 4u rack case with a 2u draw and footswitch for the mute and drive/boost.

I could consider shipping at cost, but she’s a heavy beast so I doubt that would be cheap, hence collection preferred. Currently carless (or unable to drive wifey’s car after an ankle op) so a meet up will be difficult at the moment, though should be possible if this runs to mid/late September when I should be mobile again.

Struggling to add photos at the moment - now added in link below.

EDIT: Looking back to try to ‘borrow’ Nik’s pictures, I appear to have misremembered what I bought it from him for 🤭 (Not sure where I dredged £1/watt from in my befuddled brain). Not wishing to be seen as profiteering, and I can’t work out how to change the start price, immediate reduction to £550

Wow - don't think I've ever seen so much Mesa stuff for sale on here at any one time as there is now...

As @WalMansays, this used to be mine.

I had it for about a year after buying it on here with a Bergantino 212 which made for a great rig.. 

I used it for rehearsals and gigs in that time and it was faultless. The band I was in did a lot of classic rock tunes - Zeppelin, AC/DC, The Cult, Foos etc, etc and it was just brilliant for that.. In fact, our drummer said he preferred the sound of this to the Ampeg V4BH head I used to have! 

But it's definitely not a one-trick pony ; I also used it with another band playing lots of old Soul/Funk tunes and again, it was great in that setting too... Bottom line is that it has loads of power and surprisingly good eq with great mids, so you'll never get lost in the mix (as the saying goes)... 

In the end, I kept my Ampeg rig and moved this on but that was only because I had too much gear and had just moved house so needed to free up some cash, otherwise, I would have loved to have kept it. 

Anyway, suffice to say, this is an absolutely top quality piece of kit that's much more versatile than you think and it really does produce that mythical 'heft' some of us (old farts) talk about! 😁

Oh, and Al's a great guy to deal with by the way so no concerns there either... 

GLWTS 😊

Thanks Nik 🙂

Bump for the bank holiday weekend 😉

Also, I'll be mobile again from 8 Sep, so a meet to handover becomes rather more of a possibility from then

I remember having one of these in the shop and we got to try it out with a Mesa 6x10. 

Standing about 3 metres away it made your rib cage vibrate 🤪

Sorry I’ve been away for a few days and missed this.

I might consider it, but I doubt that it would be cheap as it’s a heavy beast, you would need to insure it adequately, and only on cleared funds.

Look into my eyes...not around the eyes...You're feeling very sleepy......and you're under.

Now when you hear the word Mesa you will immediately search out Walman's BigBlock 750 Amp For Sale post, realise the longing in your heart for this wonderful amp, and contact him to arrange a swift purchase 😁

Hey there is the amp still available?

[WalMan]

Indeed it is 🙂

Sold to a man who has been on a Mesa pilgrimage today 🙂
