you guys have to admit alot of what your paying for with mesa and other popular brands is the name. i realy dont think the mesa is 3 times better then the b-52 (it costs that much more.)
list the differnces...
1. v30 speakers(big deal, they can be changed)
2. higher quality construction, as in it doesnt fall apart as easy... i doubt a b52 will fall apart.
3. mesa logo (that doesnt have an option of being gold or chrome whahaha)
4. circetry and electronics, ok mabe you got me here, but i dont know much about this stuff...
If im wrong please tell me... im always looking for advice on things i dont know much about...

i think the mesa is alot better than the b52... hands down..... of course mesa is overpriced... but they still rock.

huge deal... besides, a b52 cab + the money for four v30's= about the same price as the mesa cab... and wont sound as good.
speakers are the most important part of the cab.

it has more to it than being tuff. it plays a big role in sound... mesa recto cabs are huge... and they sound like it too....

who cares about the logo? i'd rather have a bright pink mesa logo on my cab than any b52 logo.... at least then i could see i was playing quality shit... besides mesa has all sorts of custom options for their amps n' cabs....

i thought you guys might get a kick out of this picture.... its my friend (i blocked out his face to protect his identity  ) playing his signature George Lynch ESP, through a mesa recto (i think). and yes that is a b-52 cab (notice the gold B-52 button at the bottom). kind of strange i will admit... ill have to ask him about it next time i see him...

The XXX kinda looks like a recto, and the 5150 kinda looks like a soldano sl-100
Yet the XXX doesent sound like a Recto, and the 5150 dosent sound exactly like a sl-100 but it has a few similarities.

i am yet to play one of these b-52 st-100a's.
I was told they are very similar in sound to the crate bv120 head because of the 6L6' power tubes.
can anyone find any cool pics of them? it says guitar center stocks them but their website doesnt have any pictures.
help would be greatful.
