collapse expand iconDescription

The Badlander 100 Tube Guitar Amp Head from MESA/Boogie is the result of 51 years of designing and building high-performance tube amps. A Rectifier at its core, the Badlander 100 serves up a retro clean, aggressive crunch and plenty of power for stunningly clean headroom, tight-tracking gain and wide punch. All three modes deliver seriously big tone through a dynamic power section with truckloads of volume available whenever you need it. With optimal balance, touch sensitivity and full control of a mighty engine, the Badlander 100 stands out from the crowd.

    Sounds great amazing in fact. The direct recording with the cab impulses really sets this amp apart. I would highly advise getting this while it's still available. Just make sure you lower your volume back down after recording before you plug a cab back in! LOL

  • Great sounds

    Great amp, just wish I could use my Mesa 16 ohm cab, with 16 ohm Marshall cab. Or at least be able to use the 16 ohm cab as the main, lead source for sound when paired with an additional 4 ohm cab, instead of vice a versa.
