Mesa TransAtlantic - 15 watt tube head

[D-Rock]

Looks interesting. Lots of features for a small amp. No word on pricing, but it won't be cheap...

Looks like Mesa's version of the Orange Tiny Terror and the Vox Nightrain.

Is it being launched at winter NAMM?

I would like to get a small amp at some point. Was leaning toward the Marshall CLass5, but I will definetely give this one a look

no EFX loop

 

[D-Rock]

Yes, launched at the winter NAMM.

It looks very nice, but again, with no EFX loop, its a deal breaker for me personally. I can understand about an amp being primarily used for pedals into clean having no loop, but not a gainer.

wow that thing looks pretty damn cool.

i was wondering when mesa would get into the low wattage tiny package tube head market. Looks DAMN COOL!

Nice THD ripoff!

what would be the best way to integrate efx with an amp like this besides going in the front?

I would set up Vox and Marshall voicings o breakup and go front, or slave it via a DI/line out into FX and wet rig.

That's pretty damn cool.

Hopefully it sounds good and doesn't cost over $800

Good catch, didn't notice that. I agree single channel amps without a loop are fine, but not channel switching amps. I am surprised they overlooked this....

They'll put a loop in it when version II comes out.

$899 Pro net is going to be the price


Hope it helps!

 

[Neeklaus]

now if we could just get some clips/videos of what it's going to sound like....

at that price, it needs a loop

looks sexy though.

 

[Superunknown]

Just played the Transatlantic....it rocks! Very impressed!

 

[Neeklaus]

[jguzmos]

Cant wait to test drive one.

no EFX loop

Agggh, this totally killed it for me

WHY IS IT SO EFFING HARD TO AD AN FX LOOP?!
