ryst Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 For the past few years I have used nothing but a line6 pod because I traveled too much, moved around a lot, and I don't own a home so having a real amp has been hard to consider.....until now. I went to see a friend who works at a local GC here in ATL and I brought in my MMM1 baritone guitar to show it to him. I decided to plug into the Mesa Road King not knowing what I was in for.. Even with my dull strings that needed to be changed this thing sounded AMAZING!! 4 different types of tubes, 4 channels, huge range of tones....The back panel has more knobs than the front! Does anyone here own this thing??? http://www.mesaboogie.com/Product_Info/Rectifier_Series/roadking/roadking.htm www.myspace.com/apocrypha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearmike Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Nathan, I haven't used the Road King yet, but I used to travel with a TriAxis and Loved it. Seriously, what the f*ck with the candles? Where does this candle impulse come from, and in what other profession does it get expressed? -steve albini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryst Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 since I haven't really messed with a real amp in a while I didn't realize that this amp is about two years old. I must have been living under a rock. www.myspace.com/apocrypha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 When I was a traveling musician/band leader, I bought the Mesa Mark IV when it first came out (after trading up a Mark II for a Mark III). If I was still 'on the road' I'd definately get a 'Road King.' -David http://www.garageband.com/artist/MichaelangelosMuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wewus432 Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Awesome design on The Road King. Retail price on that head and a 4 by 12 cabinet, about 5 grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
