I just don’t think I’m a Mesa sort of guy

When it comes to Boogie Mark amps, I have found that user error is generally the problem not the amp itself. Too many knobs and options that fatten the tone too much. The newer Boogies from the Mark series are compressed sounding as opposed to the earlier marks, leading back to the very first ones, which are super open and airy and uncompressed. The pick attack is immediate, something that has to be experienced. Early Boogies are like a super modded fender amp, very unlike the raspy sounding Marshall tone associated with Marshall.

They’re, (Marshall, Boogie, Fender) very complementary to each other. I would never consider owning just a Boogie, Marshall or Fender. I like to rotate my guitars also.

IMO the amp thing is a never ending quest , no matter what you have you will develop the urge to try something else at some point . I think you just kind of get too used to a certain sound . Not that you don't like that particular sound but something else is needed until you get sick of that one at some point and the process repeats .

It's a curse
