Bosstastic!

Looks kinda funny sitting on a big ol' 4x12.

The same thing happens with my little Sovtek "Tube Midget."
 
I'd say the 2-channel Rebel 30 is closer to the Mesa TA-15 than the 20, as far as flexibility goes (ignoring wattage). The TA-15 at the local GC sounded beyond incredible, but it was bought up quickly.

If the Tweaker was a 2 channel amp, it would be the closest. The TA-15's Marshall setting is much better than the Tweaker's Marshall. Call the Tweaker the poor man's TA-15! :D

I bet DVM is having a hard time getting back to those pedal builds now that the new amph has landed. :poke
 
Congrats on a sexy new amph, DVM!

So, where's the icon for "this thread is worthless without clips"?
 
Darn it, BC, ya scooped me!! :mad

Yep, just saw that article this morning. They reviewed 5 low-wattage amps:

  • Dr.Z Monza (1x10 combo, $1300)
  • Egnater Tweaker (head, $400)
  • Mesa Transatlantic TA-15 (head, $900)
  • Victoria Ivy League (1x10 combo, $1700)
  • 65 Amps Tupelo (1x12 combo, $2400)
All were well rated, but the Transatlantic and the Victoria got "Editor's Pick" ratings! :thumbsup :rockya :applause

I'll have to go buy the mag just to read this. thanks for the heads up.
 
Gives a whole new meaning to the old lyric

"I got my lunchbox and Im armed real well"
 
great score !

I could buy that head just for the looks alone!
It begs you to turn it on regardless of the need to jam..hehe
I wish it had an efx loop but the tone makes up for it
 
I spent almost an hour playing a TA-15 yesterday, and I'm more impressed than ever. It is so simple to dial in a wide variety of tones. I could spend hours just jamming and tweaking one. I had to pull myself away to save my marriage!

Were you playing one of your own guitars through it Tig? What are the clean tones like? I read "jangly" somewhere in this thread. One thing I love about my cheap-o Cube30 is the JC mode. Does this amp go there?
 
I finally got a chance to play one of these today. Wow. It's all true. The variety of really great tones in that little amp is seriously impressive. I loved the AC15 imitation.
