The Mesa Engineering Express 5:25 1 x 12 combo embodies Mesa Engineering’s legacy of creating ‘giant-killer’ guitar amps, a concept pioneered with the original Mk1 Boogie in the early seventies. Designed by Randall Smith, the founder of the company, this combo amplifier showcases Mesa’s commitment to delivering exceptional tone and comprehensive features in a compact 1 x 12 format.

Featuring in Mesa’s current entry-level range, the 5:25 Express continues the tradition of meticulous craftsmanship, evident in the logo, badge, and even the studs securing the leather corners. Internally, custom components populate an exquisitely finished printed circuit board, personally drawn by Randall Smith.

This combo amp is a true two-channel design, with almost identical sets of controls elegantly arranged in a double-decker fashion on the front panel. The variable contour controls for each channel are prominently featured, providing players with versatile tonal options. Conveniently, the rear panel houses remote switching jacks for channel and reverb controls. The Mesa Engineering Express 5:25 is a testament to the brand’s enduring commitment to top-tier tone and innovative features in a compact combo amplifier.
