I went to the Mesa store on Sunset when I was there last time, but mussed the factory. Amazing stuff. I consider them the “Rolls Royce” of amps.
That said, I buy all my guitars and basses here: http://www.rondomusic.com/
Even after a complete setup, they’re ridiculously inexpensive and serve very well.
I have an SX bass as well. Good value, to be sure.
Well get back over there and clean up that factory! You muss it, you bus it.
That said, I buy all my guitars and basses here: http://www.rondomusic.com/I've been to their website a dozen times and boy I am tempted but I get confused at the different grades & models of their guitars.
I can't tell what's cheap-cheap (that'd I'd buy for my grandkids, aka-beginners) or what's the 'good value guitar that's inexpensive' for me to play. As the pictures all look great.
Plus their spec's aren't exactly clear: Neck Scale length, fret board radius, or body construction - plywood, basswood, alder, whatever.
