Title: Price check for a used Mesa Triple Rec, but US spec?
Post by: Twinfan on October 21, 2008, 02:47:58 PM

A mate of mine has a nearly new US-spec Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier head he wants to sell.  He imported it directly from the US and he uses it with a transformer to drop the UK mains voltage down, which he'll sell with the amp.  He asked me what I thought a fair price would be and I haven't got a clue!  It's not something I know the prices of.

Anyone got any ideas what it's worth?

A new UK spec one is about £1,900. I'd say about £1,750ish would be reasonable for a nearly new one in good nick, even if it does have to have a drop-down transformer.

He'd get anything from £850-£1500 odds on ebay, realistically selling privately I think £1200 is fair.
