RE: FOR SALE: Mesa Boogie Mark I Combo Amp



The good thing about the tonelab is that you can
bypass the preamp or cab models if you'd like.  I've
never tried keyboards but I run my acoustic guitar and
bass through it with pretty good results.  Remember
most guitar preamps roll off quite quickly after 8K or
so and you're not going ot want your keyboard sounds
to do that.... or maybe you do.  Low end wont' be an
issue, but bass has a drop-d bridge set up and it
seems to do fine. (I come out of the tonelab and go
into a Soundcraft board and on to Mackie studio
monitors.)

If I remember I'll run the output of one of my synths
though it and see how it works.
