Who makes Mesa Mark head shells these days?

[ners]

Debating changing out the headshell on my MKIII++ for a different style, but not sure where to look for one. Googling just gives random old Reverb listings and forum posts from a decade ago.

Also open to suggestions so post up any pics of yours!

@Metalone72 (aka Scott) makes great headshells. His offerings are all tolex, but his quality is excellent and fairly priced. He's trustworthy and has a stellar reputation across communities Rig-Talk, and various Mesa Boogie FB groups, etc.. You can't go wrong with Scott.

Here's a pic of the last headshell he did for me. John Sykes ended up buying this amp. He said the headshell looked badass and was what caught his attention. After learning more about the amp (No Stripe DRG w/ 105pt & 3+ Bendinelli mod) he had to have it.

Off topic, but any chance you've got gut shots of the circuit board from before you sold it? I'm curious about the mod, I've got a no stripe with the 105 PT too!

Not who you asked, but I've got a 105PT NS as well and here's a shot from when it went to Mike B for a ++ mod.

Cool, thanks for sharing!

I used to make head shells, but stopped because people are cheap fucks and completely unrealistic about how much it costs to build and ship one. Idiots were messaging me thinking I would build a headshell and send it to them for $60. Dumb fucks

Just so I've got the right expectations, how much would you charge for one?

I got a custom 212 built & shipped for just over $500 so would expect a headshell to be less, but what the fuck do I actually know.

Okay, $90?

I need a headshell for a JP2C rackmount that I want to un-rackmount. Is that something I can get from Mesa or do I need to go aftermarket?

As mentioned above, Scott’s the guy you want to buy a headshell from. Top notch on every level.
