Mesa Boogie introduces the TransAtlantic TA-15 lunchbox amp. The TA-15 packs all the footswitchable performance, including the patented multi-watt Channel Assignable Power, found in the company’s high-end full-size models and offers the most classic British and American sounds in a 12 3/8″ W x 6 3/4″ D x 5 7/8″ H package that weighs only 12 pounds.

The amp features two channels with five modes. You can choose a preamp style in each channel and then select either 5, 15 or 25 watts. The Channel Modes start off with lower gain Normal and higher gain classic versions of the iconic Top Boost sound in Channel 1, which includes an ingenious Pull Master on the Cut control that can be hard bypassed for purists. Channel 2 houses three modes: a tweed clean, a British high gain in HI 1 and a classic Boogie lead in HI 2.

The amp comes with a padded gig bag that holds the power cable and footswitch.

Well, I will be observing NAMM 2010 from webdom this year and hopefully provide some updates as I can. This is one great looking guitar that I came across while browsing GuitarNoize.com

DBZ Guitars unveils the Bolero Banneret, the first in the new Regalia Series of guitars debuting at the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) trade show January 14 in Anaheim, California. The new Regalia Series takes guitar building, features and appointments to a new level by incorporating ornate metal embellishments.
