In part 1 of the tour, we get to check out two of Mesa' most important areas; Mesa Founder Randy Smith's workshop and design room. We see all the old prototypes, which have spawned of several amps and how Randy designs their plated-through circuit boards with curved lines for various tape widths for connecting all the components on the board.

Finally a good tour of the Mesa Boogie Factory. I never thought this was going to happen.
For me, Mesa Boogie is the ultimate amp!!!
I got a Mesa tour today with Tien. Super nice dude, and an awesome factory.
Wow! So nice to see where my tone addiction (llook at my skipname...) is born....Mesa rules for me; some 15 years now, after trying all kinds of amps. I have one problem though.....selling them (for another Boogie) is soooo very hard......Thanks for posting!
word, I'm very happy about this, I'm sure I'm not the only one either.
@3:30 Revision A & B of the dual rectifier...some serious amp history right there!
I never understood why certain informational videos like this still have dislikes. It's not exactly the type of video that polarizes opinions.
Just let me buy ONE of those prototypes off the shelf. I pick....a Mark IIC+. Knowing it's going to need some love.
Nice, you just say it all. I have been workig on tube amps for 5 yers till now and its amazing ho a simple 15W fender Tweed can do. I started with a 50W JCM800 based amp and it has a plenty of power and feel to it.
Mesa amplifier simply rule!!!
This is where my Mark V was born <3
As an Eletronics Engineer I had all those Ideas by myself, but concerned if someday one of those well-know companies will just starting Billing-me if I start to seel Home-made amps, what for now is my Hobby.(A really nice hobby by the way)
Jim Marshall died on April 5th, 2012.
The iconic JCM800 circuits spawned Soldano's, 5150/6550's, Double and Triple rec's and others well in to the 1980's.
Original Marshal amps were copies of early Fender Bassman amps. The only real difference was the use of EL34 instead of expensive 6L6 power tubes.
Mesa Boogie amps were also copies of hot rodded Fender Amps.
Let's just say that both Marshall and Mesa Boogie owe a lot to early Fender amp circuits and still "borrow" others ideas today.
Marshall vox and Mesa boogie,the only amps that exist to me;D
you tellin me one guy is responsible for mesa sound ?
...even the PCB's look good Oo
@jsabo1929 Marshall has fans?
Marshall isn't even on the same level as Mesa. All Mesas are hand assembled. Marshalls are built on an assembly line.
ultimately
No, you're not the only one, here I am.
The mesa mistery gets lichtend a bit
