Mesa Boogie Mark III Purple Stripe Tube Combo Amp, 1986

 Mesa Boogie Mark III Purple Stripe Tube Combo Amp, 1986

Introduced in 1985, the Mesa Boogie Mark III was the third major version of this iconic ‘upgrade’ of the Fender Princeton. The original concept was built for an unsuspecting Barry Melton of Country Joe and the Fish, then tested and named by Carlos Santana. Built for at least five years, these amps can be dated by a coloured stripe above the power cord. These amps were rapidly adopted by professional players around the world, and have appeared on countless stages and recordings.
