The 50-Watt EL-34-powered Triple Crown TC-50 from Mesa/Boogie captures the essence of rock with the ability to expand into other genres. From bubbly, sparkling clean sounds—rarely heard in this type of amp—to a tight and aggressive wall of rock crunch, the Triple Crown is aimed squarely at rock's high-gain throne. Geared for versatility, the Triple Crown TC-50 features a Bias Switch, allowing users to swap the stock complement of EL-34s for the fatter, rounder sounding 6L6. Lush all-tube reverb drenches the TC-50's three channels with a beautiful 3-D halo and provides assignable choices on where to use it for the best results. Additional features include MIDI for true connectivity and a variety of ways to access the amazing sounds and pro features packed inside the TC-50. A Store toggle switch allows for simple one-touch writing of footswitchable functions to any of 256 MIDI program numbers.

    I wanted a Mesa Boogie for the longest time. This amplifier can do it all. Super cleans that are a great platform for pedals. The "blues" blue channel offers great blues lead tone and that "classic rock" sound. The red channel is pure metal mayhem with melt your face leads. The only negative is amazing sound doesn't come cheaply but hey, it's made in the U.S.A. (with excellent quality)!!!
