Mesa Walkabout cab/Subway head compatibility

[Beedster]

Probably a question for Andy @agedhorse but in case anyone else has tried, is it possible to install a Mesa Subway head in a Walkabout combo cab? If so, I think I have a cunning plan

If I remember correctly, the head fits but it's not recommended. There was a thread here somewhere and Andy contributed.

Thanks Steve, I'll take a look 🙏

I've just searched and it was me asking about fitting my spare 15" Subway speaker into my Walkabout combo.

 

Your new one is a lovely looking bit of kit. They're just amazing amps. Difficult to move about (more bulk than sheer weight) but worth every effort.

....but not as difficult as a 1516

I'm actually going to disagree there (based on my 2x15s). The ergonomics of the cabs handles is better than the single (top) handle on the Walkabout. Originally, you could get a sort of trolley, that attached to the back of the combo, but I've not one in the flesh ever.

My lasting memory of my 1516 was our singer's "Dude, your cab broke my car....", that and it going walkabout (geddit) in the back of a courier van only to be located in rural Suffolk 3-months later
