Joining the Marshall family! (DSL100 content)
After years of owning Mesas, I have sold all of them and have decided to join the Marshall family!
Just bought a JCM 200 DSL100 tonight. Hopefully it comes early next week! I can't wait! |

Grats! I would've kept at least one Mesa to have both flavors
 Be sure to try out new tubes (depending on which ones it currently has) and they definitely shape the sound of the DSL in a noticeable way. |

My list of Mesa amps is long: Rect-o-verb, Mark IV, Stiletto Trident, Mark V, Road King II, Royal Atlantic. Of all the Mesa amps I have owned, the Royal Atlantic was the winner for me. I really regret selling the amp. I sold all the Mesas and bought a Diezel VH4 (which I don't think I will EVER sell). No rush to buy another amp, just needed an inexpensive backup amp or an amp to take to gigs when I didn't feel like taking my VH4. |

For some reason, I never got along with the Mark V. Maybe it was the 6L6 tubes. The cleans were amazing, channel 2 was meh to me, and channel 3 just wasn't as awesome as on the Mark IV. It would be amazing if you can get Channel 1 of the Mark V, the 2nd gain channel (+ boost) of the Royal Atlantic, and Channel 3 of the Mark IV in one amp. That would probably be my ideal amp. |

They absolutely do. I was in two bands with the other guitarist using a rectifier..both times our sound was KILLER. The Mesa has the bottom that the Marshall doesn't have, and the Marshall has the sweet mids that the Mesa doesn't have. Its really a great mix. We are auditioning another guitarist next week. One of the reasons I am strongly considering him is due to that the fact he has a triple rec Mesa half stack!
