    That is a beautiful amp from an aesthetic point of view.

    Massive ballsacks...beaten to the punch!

    I've been working on the follow up to last year's Hawker for a good few months now, it's fair to say the new Mesa is quite similar in both specs, features, and tone. Looks incredible though, fantastic.

    Back to the drawing board with renewed vigour for me then :)

    That blue tolex has to be polished by being bum walked by 20yr old virgins, a very rare commodity in them thar parts!

    Bum what?

    Actually, on second thoughts, forget I asked.

    Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

    Tweed-esqe Grill Cloth 
    No, it's more like basketweave. Tweed grille cloth is a thin maroon nylon.

    Just seems an odd choice to only offer the amp in tolex when it's called a Tweed - some creative colours of tweed would have looked great. Although knowing Mesa, would be another $400 on top...

    I really hate the brown leather handle and corners too, they should be cream.

    So on second thoughts, maybe I've just saved myself two and a bit grand!

    @ICBM ; Get @RiftAmps ' new amp instead, as mentioned above. I'm sure Chris would do it in whatever colour you choose.

    I'm not sure. I love the looks and while many will like the narrower range of sounds and single channel simplicity, I wonder whether the Clean or Fat channel voicings on a Mark V (or 25/35) can get these sounds, or very similar, but also offer other voicings and channels?
