Awesome! But ... didn't you plan to move soon? What does Mrs Laurie say to your latest acquisitions? :?
Yeah... I promised I'd stop buying stuff. But when deals this good come along, how to say no? I'm doing some horse-trading of other gear that will make the net cost of this amp less than $500. How could I say no... :roll:
Well done for rescuing all these wonderful beasts..... I would be the same if there were such second hand shops over here.

Post a pick of the herd, before you pass them down the line.......

Cheers..... Simon

Here are the pics of the beast after a good cleaning.

It is 100% original except one of the wheeled castors - replaced by a previous owner years ago.

Firstly, I am a Mesa freak...

The Heartbreaker is a cool, niche outlier. It's often misjudged, but it's a cool take on both a Fender BF/SF and a MK1. It's great that it can cop older and semi-modern tones and is easily nudged into tonally wide responses with with the modes and power voicings.
Plus, it's built pretty darn well and Mesa will still honor customer service for it!
