Someone do post a reply on this as well. I'm also thinking of getting a Mesa or a Peavey in short term.

Default mesa boogie

i owned the f30 before.
do note that the f series has no rectifier tube.
the f series also has hum problems.

apart from that, its got gorgeous hi gain, and very nice clean.
hard to dial in anything in btn.

Tried a DC30 before.

Nice distortion - in between Mark and Recto series.

Clean is ok, nothing fantastic. Hard to dial any in between tones.

The phone number of the shop at Sim LIm is 63339745. His name is Raymond and seems to be a nice enough guy. I have been looking at the mesa amps too but I am begining think I might look toward THD.
Good luck anyway

Apart from F30 or F50, are there any other tube amps by either Mesa or other companies that can probably nail the rectifier tone?
