I've always thought Mesa Mavericks were cool.

I had a sweet Maverick rig that I really regret getting rid of a long time ago. It was a custom short head with matching 1x12 open back and 1x12 thiel. Bitchin little stack that smoked my Mk IV in a live mix. :doh:
 
I have never even seen a Maverick. Being a Rectumfryer family amp probably misled people. I will be on the lookout for one. Interesting.

I think a number of people who read this thread will keep a look out for one. I expect the price on them to jump a bit as a result of this thread. I have seen it happen before.

Nice amp. I had one about a year. Montrose was using them at one point in the late 90's


Do you still have the MKV Carl?

Yes I do! I really like it. Great amp. I use it often. No complaints. I don't like every mode but I use the ones I like :thumbsup:
 
Those clips were great but I would still take a Lone Star Special over a Maverick any day.

What's the gain channel like on the LS? How much gain does it have if you were to compare it to another Boogie?

More than some less the others.....shit, I don't know. It's a Boogie, it has a ton of gain. I just like tonally what it can do over Mavericks I've played. But the LSS isn't really a clean channel and dirty channel amp. Both channels can be either if you're able to crank the master up. The "clean" channel actually gets my favorite dirt tones in the amp when you use it as a non master style amp. Now i'm only talking about the Special with EL84's, not the regular Lonestars.
