MESA MARK IIC+ REISSUE - FULL DEMO

Sounds great!
Mesa could’ve reached a large portion of the MKIIC+ market by sending Ola one to begin with.

Interesting, he says that the reissue actually has a little more gain than his original. I guess, like everyone says, the originals varied a bit.

Don't all old amps vary a bit from amp to amp? That's what i've found. Component tolerances/drift...
 
My amp squeals!! Meanwhile Ola has Input and Treble on 10…lol
I guess he got a good one 🤔
As far as I know it is possible to tinker out that oscillation. I think out tech savvy guys might have a solution already.

Still that’s completely ass situation and layout design problem.
 
Need to hear more opinion about the non-recorded tone, otherwise this will end up like his video on the Mark VII

Absolutely, Anomaly👍
So many variables / parts substitutions / Tubes / pots etc to affect the outcome.
And of course, how the amps (with all the components) age over 40 years.

Yeah, no chance I'd dial that RI in the way some did to 'prove' the squeal. I always dialed any of the C+ I had, same as Ola...Vol 1 pulled, dimed...Treb pulled, dimed...then, gain was anywhere between 3-6 and if I needed more, hit the boost pedal.
No squeal. If I dimed the gain, which sounded like shit IMO, yes it would squeal. But, I can't be sure if it was feedback or oscillation since I sold my last C+ a few years ago.

ah the good old days…
 
Welcome back. Missed an opportunity on that video though, to put on some nice tan slacks and a sensible jumper and play some Christopher Cross.

Right? I know when I think about the prospective 2C+ customer, I think of people playing elevator music on TGP
 
Thank you for giving everyone a demo of what they actually want to hear, @Ola Englund :ROFLMAO:

IMO the reissue sounds great, really close to an OG
Cheers man, I have a video coming this week directly comparing the OG and the reissue but I see now people want to hear a comparison with the JP2C and the Mark VII as well so I guess I’ll make another one at some point
