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.
The Boogie Mark III features the familiar single-12 speaker, in this case an OEM EV (ElectroVoice) model and is switchable between 60 and 100 watts. It’s in very clean condition, and the original black slip cover and manual are included.
