MESA has launched a bass amp and two cabinets under its new Subway moniker.
The headliner is the Subway D-800, an 800-watt Class D amplifier, which offers an impressive amount of power considering it's a head that fits in your gig bag. Also on the bill are two cabinets - a 1x12 and 1x15 - which feature custom Subway Neodymium speakers.
Suggested retail prices in the UK are £739 for the Subway D-800 head, and £639 and £739 for the 1x12 and 1x15 cabinet, respectively.
