The 594 models come with a Pattern Vintage neck cut that isn't changeable outside of Private Stock, and their pickups aren't changeable unless you go with an Artist Package.
If you want a more shred friendly neck, look at the PRS Tremonti, 25" scale pattern thin neck (thinnest neck they make)...
Yeah even at 10 watts. The volume difference between 25w and 10w is really minor (unless you are playing channel 2 on modern). Realistically the way to tame this amp for bedroom levels is a flat EQ in the loop where you control the return volume.
Mesas master volumes leave a lot to be desired. Do the different channelodes have sharp volume jumps like vintage/modern does on a recto? You could always put an EQ pedal (like the mesa graphic EQ) in the loop, leave it flat and use it to cut the return volume...
Mesa is not alone in this venture, most boutique manufacturers do, hell even 90% of this forum is looking for the latest greatest Marshall clone! :lol: :LOL:
Because of his voltage reduction on his amps. When that happens with a power plant its called a brownout. Eddie voltage starving amps is the same thing, so its the brown sound.

It absolutely can. Ever since I got my archon 100 my roadster and rectoverb 25 have collected dust. The master volume on the thing is one of the best I've used. It can produce great tones at volume levels my 3 month old can sleep through being one wall away! It can easily cover 80s metal...
