Are there any plans for a Fillmore 100 watt version with 6l6's? I am really interested in the Fillmore 50 but have been holding off just in case there is a 100 watt version on the horizon.Thanks much!
Hi Zozo - nothing on the horizon to speak of. Thanks for your interest!
Thanks for the reply. I have been playing through a Mesa Lonestar for the last 14+ years and although I absolutely love it there is something about the Fillmore 50 that has really peaked my interest! Guess I just have to play one and take it from there....How could I go wrong, It's a Mesa Boogie!!
You know they will make the Fillmore 100 next year. I'll bet on that. Probably a few guys bought the 50 already and now they see the 25 only 2 months later.
MESA/Boogie * Very cool amp, very very sweet Tele!
That Strat clean sound is right up SRV alley.
his playing also seemed the most natural on strat !
One of the best amp demos, ever. Great playing and demonstration of possible tones from this amp. Bought a Fillmore after seeing and hearing this video.
That strat tone wow. I got to try this little guy. Sounds very promising. Good job Mesa, something for us fans that dont necessary want high gain metal amps.
Got this amp yesterday and it is amazing in my opinion. I’ve constantly been trying to find something that I don’t like about it or that could be better and I simply can’t think of a single thing that this amp doesn’t do great. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about buying it, definitely worth the money.
You’re in the honeymoon stage
still like it? i'm thinking about it but i am used to Marshall 4x12 cabs and everything sounds like its coming out of a small closed in box to my ears it hard after using those big cabs.
That 6V6 tone is FANTASTIC! Just the right amount of compression, not too tight, not too spongy. Great harmonics too and tone for days even at lower volume! Tough to find many 6V6 combos out there that even come close to being as versatile as this guy right out of the box! Great price point for a hand-made product with excellent support out of CA too! The clean classic looks with the vintage Boogie badge seal the deal!
Thanks for the kind words, In2! Glad you're diogging it and we agree about the 6V6s. Great feel and great clip threshold for this style of preamp and tones! :)
This dude covered it all! Great playing. Great way on trying different guitars, different tones... very cool Dinesh. Nice work!
Amazing Demo, indeed!
Halfway through Tele demo: “I want this amp”
Halfway through LP demo: “I need this amp”
10 seconds into Strat demo, paused the video and ordered.
Dinesh is just an all-around great guy. I've met him a few times in the store and got to jam with him through a mutual friend. Great dude, great player.
Always cool to peruse gear and see your cousin.
This gentlemen really presents this amp well...good stuff.
Absolutely perfect demo! Great player with sum tasty licks. SOLD!!!!!
Just got the Fillmore 50 a couple of weeks ago. It’s ridiculously smooth. I love it. The magicians at Boogie have done it again.
Thank you, Blue - so glad you're digging it!
You won my heart at 6V6.. I have a soft spot for them power tubes.
I need this in my life like now..
My God, those tones are amazing. I'm still going crazy about the Mark V 25 🤘🏿😈
Dinesh is the man, always a great player and forever helpful at Mesa Hollywood, great guy and an awesome Ambassador for Mesa.
Dude....the playing makes me want to buy one. Awesome review showing off what the amp can do man.
Played one yesterday, totally blown away with the gain section . Great reverb too . Also sounded cool on clean with my Les Paul . Added a tumnus deluxe ( Wampler ) .....tone heaven !
This is the closest thing to what Mesa boogie started out doing in the first place.
I've got a Fillmore 25 head running into a Mesa 2x12 with the Mesa Vintage 30 speakers. I am using it as a pedal platform, and it allows me to get so many great tones!
awesome tone, especially love the strat tones through it. beautiful amp Mesa
Outstanding work guys! You keep cranking out gem after gem the past few years!
This is one of the better demo videos I've seen. Thanks!
This is right up my alley. Can’t wait to try the 25!
I am very happy with my Fillmore 50 so far. The 25 sounds just as good.
Sounds Beautiful....and a back-saver!
Sounds great, nice work!
I’d love to hear a direct comparison between this amp and the Lonestar Special in the same type of playthrough and environment, switching back and forth and progressing from clean to dirty sounds with each amp.
The 6V6 tubes sound amazing. It is so aggravating that the other Mesa "mini" amps don't have a 6V6 option.
MUST RESIST....amazing work (again) w/ this amp.
Great. Yet another Mesa product I covet... Great sounding amp and great demo, Dinesh.
Thanks, Greg! :)
I love the 6V6 tones.
This is my favourite fillmore. The 50 sounds harsh by comparison in every video I've heard. I'll try at the shop but it seems clear as day this suits my needs and sounds sweeter by what I'm hearing.
Well done D! Excellent demonstration of tones!
I expect Mesa will do well with this amp! Thanks for sharing brother!
Dinesh, that is some fabulous work. Each tone matched to the correct instrument and style. Mesa/Gibson brands have come UP! This amp is cool but Ive found the Recto Verb can be really versatile as well… decisions decisions.
Let us know if you need any help deciding!
@@mesaboogie thank you much! My buddy Mat Dauzat is happy w the amps he’s usin on the road w Seal. Love the Mesa stuff!
Just ordered one of these. So stoked. Perfect for what I've wanted.
This is maybe the most beautiful sound I ever heard, except for extreme metal. Please do a Fillmore vs Rectoverb video! Good job Mesa
no one plays extreme metal that music is dead...blues rock swing thats NOW
chris rocco everyone plays extreme metal
If this little combo is powerful enough for gigs and loud jams, it'll be perfect. The larger version may be a handful for me to load/unload.
What a sweet sounding amp.
It sounds like it could nail that Rocky Mountain way tone. Fantastic cleans also.
keith wollenberg Yeah I was hearing Walsh’s Les Paul in this video for sure!
Nice demo. I was originally a Mark IIA combo owner that I bought new in summer of 1979 (ordered direct from Mesa as one did back then). Great amp.
I also bought a White Mark IV combo new in 1990, which I still own in mint shape. Love Mesa amps since 1979....Still have all my Mesa Boogie Christmas cards too from the early days!...

I know what I will treat myself with after I'll (way overdue) get my driver's licence next year!
i liked the 50 but love this one and the 6V6 set up
I wish I knew about this before I bought Fillmore 50...
This is what I imagine a 5F3A 1959 Fender Deluxe would have sounded like if they ever made one.
Sick sounds
J'adore ces amplis, j'ai un studio 22+ fabriqué en 1984 depuis des années, une vraie petite merveille dans tous les domaines
considering the 50 has a half power switch... why not offer that with the 25?
Merci. 👍25 is Perfect like my markV25.
Very nice amp.......Mesa does it again
OMG. OK, that's it, I officially want a Fillmore 50 and a Fillmore 25 to run together. But I'll get the Fillmore 25, first, because I already have an F-50 narrow chassis combo, and I think the Fillmore 25 would sound brilliant with it.
Thanks, Gemma -stay tuned for more videos that might help your current enthusiasm for the pair! ~ :) Appreciate the kind words!
This reminds me of the Prince. The Tweed reminds me of a a Deluxe. So that would make sense in the line.
You know the truth out there is Tru tone is made from your hands through a good amp.
I have always played Mesa boogie from the mark 4,5, rectroverb
The best way to describe this amp is a hot rodded delux reverb. It has an amazing pre amp for petals.
Sounds nice, and nice playing.
I LOVE this combo
That amp sounds awesome....it reminds me of the sounds I was getting from an old vox with a sole mate jr reverb...haunting sounds. It also sounds like it kicks serious ass in the crunch mode. To paraphrase the line from Treasure of the Sierra Madre/Blazing Saddles "We don't need no stinkin' pedals"
It’s crunchy all around , very nice
Tele: ….okay, not bad. LP: ….sounds 'okay'. Strat: OH SWEET JESUS THERE IT IS!!!
Best comment!! :D
;-)
Haha!
Exact tone of Stevie Ray Vaughan🤘🤘🤘
I love mesa amps. I really do...
My only real question in regards to the amp is first and foremost to say you have done a great demo of the amp. I think this is the best demo online for it. I’m getting a good clear sound out of my speakers and can definitely hear every detail of the note, so thank you for that. I like the amp great deal, and I think it will dial in the tones I want and certainly be more compact than what I’m using now I really would like to pick up a lower watt amp but I have had a hard time deciding this is a lot more manageable. I have one studio, well actually too because I have a dirty Shirley and also a silver jubilee and I know that people say the silver Jubilee is like the greatest gigging amp ever for small venues but I have to tell you there’s just too much gain in it and the clean channel you can manipulate, but if you try to use the dirty channel, it’s just not really that controllable with a 4 PAF pick ups even I don’t know I’m just not looking for that high of a game tone. I want the option to be there for gigs but honestly I don’t ever get any more aggressive than Led Zeppelin or free and I think this amp will allow me to dial all of those tones in from the beautiful cleans with my ES 335 and get that B.B. King sound all the way to the naughty channel and getting with the options on both sides. This just seems like an ideal lamp but I really am curious how well it pushes that 90 W speaker it’s one of my favorite speakers it it’s just a pretty large speaker for that amplifier as far as wattage rating. However, I can understand that would give you more headroom to some extent in a small amp and like I said, I think the speaker is very valuable as far as the sound is concerned, I just wasn’t sure how well it would push it. Either way. This is basically And correct me if I’m wrong on this, I am seeing the amp is hand wired, which makes it even better and it $2200 not bad at all. Truly, the amp reminds me with its gain modes and staging on each channel. It sort of reminds me of my king of tone pedal, except for it’s an amplifier and the sounds are slightly different but when I throw it on this amplifier, it’s gonna sound pretty sweet I think either way looks like you sold me and I’ve talked myself into it in this book I just wrote you. Thanks so much for the demo I’m convinced, but I really am curious about the speaker, like I said sounds great, but is it there for headroom only and I’m glad the stamp is not metal and thank you for not playing all distortion and making us miserable. I truly think people focus so much on game that they forget about their own personal tone gain is a wonderful thing, but it needs to be used appropriately and I just see the kids going crazy with it more and more and more, thanks again and best wishes for a great day 6:30
Son muy buenos estos productos. Su sonido una maravilla.
Good to the last note!
Could the Mesa Fillmore do metal? I’d like to see more of the high mode on channel 2!
Great demo, high but the 50 because I wanted the larger cabinet. Not sorry, until I have to move it around. It sounds great, but the 25 only weighs 35 pounds and sometimes, that is very appealing.
This guy can play
Sounds like a polished Vox
I would have expected to have a lower wattage option, like 25 down to 10. That would have been usefull. Anyways, I love my Fillmore 50 :)
Argggh! Why do you do this to me? ☺ When I hit the powerball I will take 2 of everything to help fill up the hidden mountain top studio I am going to build.. Seriously though, sounds spectacular!
so you're halfway there, just make the head already!
This demo makes me want to buy a Strat...
:D
Love my Studio Pre and Dual Recto but this seems more my speed these days.
great video!
Great vid. Though i worked a few blocks away from Mesa HQ in the early '90s never had an amp i demo'd afterwards work for me. Guess i just couldn't crank them in shops. This Fillmore looks killer/perfect. Enough swat for a bar gig and i'd '3 channel' it, ch1 for clean then hit that with an OD like a Bad Monkey and set ch2 for leads. What else would i need ? Maybe a chorus pedal. Great Amp!!
I'll check out 50, the 25 isn't horrible and seems versatile but missing those mandatory sparkling cleans with that touch of air.
How does this compare to the Lonestar Special ? Is it higher gain then the LS Special?
Hi Dave - The Lone Star is more blackface in it's circuit, but the EL-84s add some tighter bass and midrange grit and some chime on top. The Fillmore is more Tweed in it's circuit and the HI mode definitely offers a bit more gain than the highest gain of the the LS Special. The Drive mode offers about the same amount of gain as the LSS but again, the two are different due to the circuits being slightly different. The Fillmore is likely slightly tighter and brighter, the LSS slightly darker and more full. That all said, it would be way easier to make them sound very close to each other than the differences you would hear with everything set at 12:00. They're much more similar than different, but it's the subtleties that count in the end, and also - it's the control and feature set that lots of people make decisions on... Hope this helps and thanks for your interest!
Hi,
when will be possible to buy it in Europe?
Thank you!
I like it.
Mesa marketing at its finest. They dont even wait a year anymore to release another version of the same model. 2 months.
It would be great to see just one Channel, with same specs.
Finally I bought it yesterday, it has a lot of high frequencies, so I have to keep them really low for my taste, but the sounds and the built quality is awesome
Yeah it’s really bright , might benefit from speaker Change for large cab To soften it up .
Just bought this Fillmore 25 today. Awesome Awesome. Which model Strat are you using???
Agree that this sounds marvelous. I get that it's 25w, but it's also a Boogie. Meaning: I have to imagine that the volume of this thing is excessive at the settings you're demonstrating here.
Hi James - The Fillmore 25 is a giggable amp but it also has a great threshold of clip and overdrive without having to be unpleasantly loud. It rides the line between the two very nicely. Plus, the Drive mode does a great job of picking up where the Clean leaves off in terms of clipping and drive sounds. Thanks for the kind words! :D
NICE! @@mesaboogie
@bout time they did @ 6V6's
Amp.
Thanks, Steve - glad you dig! :)
Is that Amp really hand wired?
If it comes in at half the price of the 50 that would be nice.
Mto top ein.
Abraços e bends
I only play at home would this be too loud or can you get that sound in a bedroom environment ?
Hi David - The Fillmore 25 sounds great at lower or higher volumes. Plenty of sweet tones available for home playing and the Drive mode in particular allows you to dial in a huge range of great sounds between clean and clipped and bluesy overdrive sounds while the Clean and HI modes handle the extremes. This amp can be great at home or on a small to medium gig!
Will this come in a mini head format like the mkV etc? I think it would be a great partner to my v:25 and then I have a great excuse to buy the head track too 😂
Hi Daniel - Not quite as 'mini' as the Mark Five: 25, but it is the 19" wide Boogie format - which is pretty compact: www.mesaboogie.com/amplifiers/electric/fillmore-series/fillmore-25/head.html Thanks for your interest!
great amp!
Ola definitely must review this amp.
WOW!!!
damn it guys. why do you have to be so good. how much headroom does the clean have though? would it possible to play this in a band setting? specifically in a pop punk setting with distortion pedals in the front?
Ha! Thanks Zombies... :) The Fillmore 25 definitely has enough power for a small to medium gig and it's definitely a great amp for pedals! If you're in a LOUD punk band, we might suggest you look into the head and pair that with a 2x12 Fillmore extension or a 2x12 Recto Compact cab as that will get you the kind of punch and deeper bass that sounds great for punk styles. The 1x12 combo could probably pull off lots of punk gigs but if you play loud, a closed back cab will make it do the right thing when it comes to heavier styles. Hope this helps and thanks for your interest!
alright awesome. thats exactly what ive been looking for. just as an alternative to my tc50.
also when does this thing go on sale?
Shipping early next week! :)
yeah fine, but how would this work with active Blackouts or EMG's?! nice cleans tho?!
It's got some crunch potential, Eric - would probably sound pretty dang good in Drive or Hi with a closed back 2x12. And yes - cleans are on point. :)
Make it 4 6v6’s and I’m in :)
The cleans are nice but the gained up tones are really boxy in the mids with no sparkle. Could just be the little combo.
It is. Try the Fillmore 25 Head with the 1x12 Speaker, but the 23" Cab. Sounds AMAZING. Much better.
@@thehumblepundit9790 what about 19" cab? Is it any good?
@@RockAndBlues7 The 23" cab sounded better. Much fuller sound to me.
6v6s always sound fairly bright and tight , a small cab doesn’t help but itl never sound as big as el34 or 6l6 . I think el84s are similar in smallness when it comes to tone
After listening to this demo, I'm very torn. I can only afford one small Mesa. I already have a Mark V:25 and it matches perfectly with my PRS Santana and DGT with their pickup configurations. And the variety of preamp selections available on the 2 channels. I feel that getting this amp would require me to get a 3 pickup bolt on neck guitar because of the way it matches up...oh well...
Thank for your interest, Spyder. The Mark Five: 25 is a great amp that is perhaps a bit more versatile than the Fillmore 25, whereas the Fillmore 25 is more straight forward and with a Vintage leaning in it's Tone. If you player higher gain music or anything more Modern, the Mark Five: 25 probably has an edge in modern tones, especially with the graphic EQ. The Fillmore is focused on Vintage tones up to classic rock and medium gain with a very simple interface. the mark Five: 25 offers more variety of tones and has a more involved interface. Hope this helps and thanks again for your intererst!
This response is EXACTLY why Mesa /Boogie rules. A straight forward and back to basics overview of the differences, not an 'upsell' song and dance. And makes me very content that I bought the 'right for me' small Mesa head for the long haul. And I hope you sell a million of the Fillmores~!
Many thanks, Spyder! It's all about people getting the right gear that inspires them to play music. Appreciate the kind words and happy the Mark Five: 25 is serving well! :D
Sounds like it would be a great amp to get a Brian May type Vox tone.
Tendra atenuador para ensayar en casa. Como para usarlo en pubs y salas pequeñas. Bajar las salida. Porque suena estupendo y brutal. Perfecto para mi.
I wonder if they could take one channel, put it in a 1x10 combo and price it about $899?
That would be amazing. I doubt it somehow.
Look for a second hand Mesa Express 5:25 with the small 10 inch cab and tataaaa. There you are ...
They could but they won't do it because their business model is selling expensive exclusivity
Princeton?
what's that red mirophone?
Shure KSM 313 :)
Sounds like edge of breakup and above ... sounds good but how versatile?
Pretty darn versatile, Tricko... :) Between the Drive and Hi modes, there's some solid coverage of clipped and bluesy overdrive to singing classic Boogie lead tones and even some vintage gutsy rock, especially if you have a closed back cab doping some low end pushing. The channel and mode configuration keeps things simple but the modes and gain/Tone controls cover some pretty extensive ground.
Great sounds there! But that Strat, wow, it really made the amp shine! Vanity question, what is the colour of the Strat? it looks like a darker shade of silver to me.. And what about the pickups? Many thanks and keep on rockin' :)
sorry if this is a stupid question, but can you use this amp, while plugging into an extension speaker, say a 1 x 12, leaving you using both speakers, without an issue?
Yes- you would plug each speaker into one of the 4 ohm inputs. Sounds great!
@@mistersongbird i just got one, but i only like the clean, i think i'll sell it... because i already have a fender.... great cleans, but i'd rather have variety
You probably should've gone with a rectoverb it sounds like
@@thesandman775 i tried one in a store and wasn't into it, the highs were too much for me...the california tweed was great as was the mark v 35, but so many knobs lol
