Up for sale is a very lightly used Mesa Mark IIC+ reissue in fantastic shape. It's probably my favorite of all the Mesas I've played over the years, but I am, I'm increasingly finding, a modded-Marshall guy at heart.
Condition-wise, the only thing worth mentioning is that the bass and treble knobs both have a small spot in their travel where the action of the knob feels slightly stiffer than the rest of the sweep. I suspect they were installed a little too tightly at the factory, but since they work fine and have no effect on the amp's tone or operation, I haven't endeavored to get them "fixed." Note that if you pull them out (which I always do with the treble), the slight stiffness vanishes. And since you'll probably leave the bass on zero, you may never notice it at all. It's an extremely minor point, but I want to be up front about everything.
The amp will come with its original power cord and foot switch. I do not have the Mesa shipping box, but I will most likely have everything professionally packed by UPS so there's no question about their fully covering any potential shipping damage.
The RT price is $2400 shipped Con US, and I might be interested in trading for another high-gain amp with a British flavor (JEL-50, anyone?). Just let me know what you've got.
Thanks for looking, and please let me know if you have any questions.
