Topic: N.A.D. I have no idea where I will use it.

A 1983 MESA Boogie S.O.B. Pic on FB. Help me picture fairy. 60 watts of tube power.  Looks like it has definitely been used. When they asked me to turn it down at GC, I bought it. I asked them if it was for sale. As in can I walk out with it today. I bought it before buyers remorse can set in. My motto-- Buy it now. Cry about it tomorrow. Lol.

LOL ... I don't even know where that idiom came from, Zurf. I just know that Mesa Boogie amps have a real nice low-end growl (which is a good thing) so that's what popped into my head.

And this is the growl that many Hard core /Thrash bands have turned to for that heavy bottom end.  and then we have all the off shoots of the "California sound"  and heavyily modded amps.   Bogner,  Rivera,  Soldano, and Jose Arrendondo advanced amp technology, and gave the world great tone.  Lets not forget RANDALL

I have a heavy bottom end no matter what guitar I play and regardless of how it is amplified.
