MESA/Boogie California Tweed Guitar Amplifier | Demo and Overview with Doug West

collapse expand iconDescription

The California Tweed 6V6 4:40 Tube Head from Mesa/Boogie is based on the '50s Tweed circuits developed by Leo Fender and refined in the '60s by Randall Smith. Known for an organic sounding voice, powerful controls and smooth transitions from clean to clip and back again, the California Tweed draws on these 50 years of experience to bring tweed-based performance and authentic 6V6 character to the modern day. With single channel simplicity, this tweed tube head includes Normal and Low inputs, Gain, Treble, Mid, Bass, Presence, Reverb and Master Controls. A vintage all-tube, long-tank, spring reverb with external reverb switching jack and a fully buffered, tube-driven series FX loop round out a feature set that contains everything you need for golden tone.

    Surprisingly, I have grown to only use the low input on this amp for every gig, whether I am playing with a jobbing band or a country band. With lower wattage I can run the master volume hotter and get the amp to open up at acceptable volumes and the pedals do the rest.
