MESA/Boogie® Mark IIC+ full demo & overview ft. Doug West & Tommy Waugh

[TheGreatGreen]

Great point(s).

I guess the larger question is what were the comments like that were left on places like SW or YT?

I ask because I've only really been monitoring from the backseat here at RT

Mostly it was just generally negative stuff with basically nobody excited about the amp at all. A lot of "sounds awful, so much for the reissue" and "geez just let the guys (Fluff, Ben, Kyle) dial the amps in a way that sounds good, why aren't they being allowed to dial the amp?" and stuff like that. People were generally saying the amp sounded like crap and the guys playing it was the single saving grace of the video, etc.

Guess who finally got the message?

He plays like a 5 year old.

He truly is a walking meme of the guitar world at this point.

 

[frontline205]

Ola finally has one.

 

[Candiria]

Not only chugs, it pinch harmonics too.

"It's not fair!
To Dinesh me
(with) the Mesa's you made when I went away!"




(no AI was used in conceiving this.)

Oh and LMAO at @frontline205 's video. What Dinesh couldn't do in gazillion minutes of video time, Ola managed to do in exactly 27 seconds.

Sounds good!

Why TF is he (attempting) to be metal with the amp on Class A?
Put that thing on simul and stop palm muting like such a pansy.
I soooo want to punch him right in the ovaries…

You got it all wrong, that demo was aimed at their Canadian metal contingent and the technique was legit! It's on Class Eh.

That sounded killer.

It pretty crazy to me that Gibson/Mesa didn’t think to send a IIC+ to Ola in advance and release a promo video with him playing metal riffs. That’s all they needed to do to not mess up the launch.

More like. “hey, that amp’s really got some class, eh?”

With this and another comparison I heard of an OG ++ vs. a JP2C, I feel like the C+ seems to have a more open, wilder top end. I played a JP2C recently and it got big and was tight but feels very controlled, kind of hard. The C+ in the clips sounds more like it wants to break free?

Ola saves the say
