Operating Instructions
Overview:
Introducing the Triple Crown™ TC-50™, arguably the most fully evolved amplifier to date emanating from the “other side of MESA”
which has spawned such Rock classics as the Dual Rectifier® Heads, the TransAtlantics®, the Royal Atlantic™ and the Electra-Dyne™.
This 3 Channel platform covers all sounds and styles ranging from sweet, bouncy Cleans with a fat bottom end to mid gain Crunch
with attitude, through singing late 70s Lead sounds and all the way up to grinding walls of modern high gain, all containing gorgeous
harmonic content and touch sensitive dynamics.
It’s got the Cleans of a MARK amp in Channel 1, the Classic Rock Crunch and beyond in Channel 2, and in Channel 3, the most
gain of any MESA to date with Dual Rectifier-esque top-end, but a higher “EL34” harmonic spread and higher, tighter Bass response
blended with a MARK amp’s soaring, vocal sustain and effortless, inviting feel. And all this versatility is delivered with an immediacy
of attack and gut-punch midrange all its own in our line.
