1981 Mesa Boogie Mark IIB 2-Channel 60 Watt Amp Head

This amp is in very good condition and was just given a clean bill of health from our in-house amp tech, Jeff Falla of ToneTron Amps!

In on consignment, we have a 1981 Mesa Boogie Mark IIB head. This is the 60 Watt version and it's chock full of vintage Mesa punch and growl. The consignor had purchased this amp from someone who had it sitting in a barn for a while but went through the care and effort to clean it thoroughly and take it in to get repaired and has completely brought it back to life! The only thing that remains of its past life is the faint smell of cigarettes but hey, it was the 80's. 

These amps were handwired and have a ton of headroom with very full sounding cleans and beautiful "violin-like" leads. If you're into the Santana sound, you'll fall in love with this. The overall feel of the amp is very immediate and would love to be fed through some Greenbacks or EV speakers.
