WTB; Mesa Boogie Mk1

BluesyDave · March 2016

Does anyone have/know the whereabouts of one of these for sale? Preferably in Bubinga.

Johnspreyer · March 2016

I am brand new to this site, so if I've done things in the wrong order, bear with me.

I have a Mk 1 reissue from Nov. 97 which I was planning to sell. It is blond not bubinga.

If you want all the details, let me know.

How much were you looking for @Johnspreyer ?

Johnspreyer · March 2016

£1000

If you want pictures and all the details, let me know.

@Johnspreyer

Hi John....PM'd.

TTony · March 2016

Very poor etiquette @pj310. If you're looking for one of these, you should have put up your own WTB thread rather than muscling in on this one really.

I'd be wary of dealing with someone with such a disregard for how things are done here.

BluesyDave · March 2016

Many thanks Modmins....I doff my cap to thee.

pj310 · March 2016

Woah I'm really sorry, I had no intention of "hijacking" a post, and to be completely honest I asked the question more to get an idea of what these go for rather than to snatch it off someone else's hands. I've been looking at finding a good clean tone and came across these and was genuinely just asking more for research purposes.

I sincerely extend my apologies to all parties involved, please ignore/delete the comment as you see fit.

Thanks for that @pj310.

I completely withdraw my "I'd be wary" comment based on your prompt, courteous and understanding response.

So, who's got a Mesa Boogie mk1 for me??

BluesyDave · March 2016

Thanks for the apology @pj310.

And @TTony.........See me at break time.

Sold a 1x12 combo, bought a head, sold the head, bought another 1x12 combo. Gonna hold on to this one I think.

There's one here if you want to pay far too much for it

Failing that there's always the King Snake

BluesyDave · April 2016

Hi @Che, yeah saw that one....lmao. That particular retailer seems to have a somewhat inflated sense of second hand gears worth. I wonder if they sell anything?

pj310 · April 2016

Oh dear ... so the reason I got interested in these in the first place was I walked into the Cranes showroom in Cardiff the other day and saw that one. And oddly enough thought it was way overpriced

Hmm, I've got a 78 Mark I which I paid £750 + shipping + tax from the states, worked out about a grand all in for an original - no idea why you would pay anything like that for a reissue?

BluesyDave · April 2016

....If you lived in the States they'd be considerably cheaper. Check out 'Reverb', they give some historical prices (of amps that actually sold).

Ché · April 2016

Not only that, a used reissue! Craziness. I've paid between £500-£800 for a combo.

There's a head on eBay in Barnsley not far from me. Think he's posted it with a 2x12 angled recto cab as well.

Ché · April 2016

I'm actually looking at the Mark 35 as an alternate to my two amp rig. If it can nail some of the Mark I vibe I may well look to sell it. Will keep you posted if so.

And yeah, totally going against what I said in an earlier post. I'm terrible!

Howdy, Stranger!
