DISC Mesa Boogie Roadster Head

Full Description

Ultimate Versatility

The Mesa Boogie Roadster is designed to be the ultimate multi-channel amp, capable of covering any tonal ground imaginable. With 4 channels, 12 voices, multiple wattage settings per channel, alongside a whole range of connectivity options, the Roadster is an all-encompassing tool that can be matched to every genre and tone. Based on the Road King (just without the Progressive Linkage technology), this amp is the pinnacle of Mesa's know-how and is the perfect live or studio device for the player who needs it all.

4 Independent Channels

The Roadster's 4 channels feature completely independent EQ and gain settings, accessible in an instant via the included footswitch. Each channel has independent access to the built-in tube reverb, along with 3 different voices to set the perfect level of headroom and overdrive.

3 Modes Per Channel

Each of the 4 channels has 3 voices to fine tune the amp's response - for a total of 12 separate modes. Each voice is unique in its character and headroom characteristics, creating any sound imaginable including crystal cleans, vintage edge-of-breakup, crunchy rhythms, bluesy leads, '80s-style saturation, modern articulated drives - the list goes on and on.

Multiple Wattage

The Roadster features channel assignable wattage settings, from 50/100 watts. This gives you the option to create an earlier breakup and bubbly tone of the 50-watt mode or create the assertive high-headroom sound of 100 watts for articulate riffing or crystal clean tones at any volume. Not only that, each channel of the Roadster features both diode and tube rectifier tracking so you can set up the perfect response for any style.

Extensive Connectivity

The Roadster features dual speaker outputs which can be selected from every channel. This allows you to use two speaker output options, either independently or in parallel. The Roadster also has an FX loop, foot switchable and assignable per channel. The included 8-button footswitch provides extensive remote control over channel changes, tuner output, mute, FX loops, reverbs - everything you need for a fully-featured live performance.
