Offer a Mesa MarkIII head even up for a (1994) 1962 Bluesbreaker Reissue combo?

Asking for a friend.

Based on the Reverb price guide, it's pretty much even cash monies.

The Mark 3 is way harder to replace. You could get a Ceriatone or any number of builders to make you a Bluesbreaker. No one clones the Mark series.

Exactly what i was thinking. Plenty of nice Marshall type amps out there. Plus, combos freakin suck.

Yeah, the combo aspect is kind of a bummer.

But gatdamn that 1962 BB sounds righteous. It does "THAT" thing beautifully.

Do not.

Send me that Mrak for safe keeping. I will keep it until you come to your senses.

I have. I see everyone complaining, but I haven't had to pay anything crazy. Just use ShipNerd. I shipped a couple EVH 50 watts somewhat recently, and they were about $75 each. The 100w was like $120, but that amp is humongous lol.

I love Marshalls but wouldn't do it. The older Marks are just skyrocketing in value. A 90s Marshall won't appreciate nearly as much.

I suppose I could buy a reissue Bluesbreaker pedal. That may hold me over until I order a Ceriatone JTM45.

No. No. No. No. No. I don’t know how many more times I’m going to say no.

Take it from the voice of experience: You. Will. Absolutely. Regret. Doing. So.

I had probably the only normal gain, red dot NKT Sunface in black with gold graphics. I sold it for more than double what I paid for it. But since it is the rarest of fuzz birds, I bet it is worth thousands now.

That one still gnaws at my craw.
