I bought my Mesa bass amp 12 years ago after playing everything on the market. Only the Mesa delivered the tone and power I need for the diverse styles I play.

This has enough juice for the largest venues - there must be a nuclear reactor in this thing!

Mesa M 9 Carbine combo amp

I have been playing out over 40 years. I have owned a lot of equipment. 24 years ago I purchased my first Boogie . Its been lov e all the way. This Bass amp has it all. Punch, volume, clarity, tone at a price that is not out of line with it does. My amp is relitively small but man what a huge sound. Run, don't walk to your nearest amp store and put your money down. You won't be sorry

Low End Heaven with power to spare.

Dialing in tone is a snap,in less than an hour I had dialed in five different usable tones.playing each one of them for about five minutes then on to the next.It seamed like I could not get a bad tone.The gain is great ,the compressor is smooth,and the EQ is fantastic.Proud to say it is American made and glad to add it to my studio.

Wow..just wow

I've gone through many amp heads over the past few years. I've owned the lowly Gallien Krueger Backline series, Euphonic Audio iAmp 600, the Mesa Mpulse 600 and played with Ampegs, Markbass, and many others. This is the most streamlined, reliable, powerful, tone savvy amp I have ever heard. It's plug in & play at it's finest. Mesa makes THE BEST products, hand built in the good ol' US of A

Sounds Great, But...

This amp sounds great. It nails many different tones. It works wonderful for both upright and electric bass. But it's been sent back to Mesa once because it quit in the middle of a gig just a couple of months after buying it new. It was fine for less than a year and now it just died in the middle of gig again. I would think for money Mesa could make a more reliable product. I've played though a lot of amps in my 20+ years of gigging. This one has sounded the best and let me down more than any other I've owned.

Our Customers Say...

“My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.”
