This amp is a beast!  Mesa Boogie Lonestar 50/100W 2x12 combo with EVM12L Classic 200W speakers, in blue tolex with silver grille cloth.  This might be the last amp you'll ever need.  I'm not kidding.  Why am I selling it?  Because I tour in a tiny car and just switched my setup to a head with cab simulator to save space, and I couldn't afford the new gear without knowing I would sell this.

Why is this amp so amazing?  Because it's impossibly warm, full bodied, and versatile.  The clean channel is unbelievable, with more headroom and bottom end than you'll ever need.  The tone stack works so well, and the range of each knob is otherworldly.  The reverb tank and FX loop are fantastic.  And then... the fully independent lead channel.  I can't even begin to describe the lead channel on this amp.  You have to hear it.  Even if you're not into the heavier stuff Mesa is known for, check out, for example, Andy Timmons' multiple videos demoing his Lonestar, and you'll hear why this lead channel is so exceptional.  This has been my primary amp for almost five years, including all the sessions for two studio albums and tons of gigs.  It has never, ever let me down.  It's never blown a tube, though I did replace the tubes some time in 2012-2013 to see what Mesa's tubes sound like compared to the tubes that were in there.  I remember thinking the replacements were better, but I've long since forgotten what the old ones sounded like.

Anyway, I can't say enough about this amp.  You're going to love it.  Mesa two-button footswitch included (Ch1/Ch2/Solo).

Here are specs straight from Mesa Boogie's website (I've removed the speaker specs, because this one doesn't have the stock speakers, and I removed mentions of the 10W setting, because this one is two-way 50W/100W.  You might also want to check out the EVM12L speaker specs to see why they are awesome.):
