Mesa Boogie Express 5:50+ head

All Tube Guitar Amplifier with a new design for added value and versatility!

The Mesa/Boogie Express 5:50 Plus Head, guitar amplifier is designed to offer great tube amp tone, more versatility and a great value. The folks at Mesa Boogie have redesigned the Express 5:50 head to include even more of Mesa’s versatile tone shaping features. Multi-watt channel-assignable power, improved Clean mode, the classic Mesa 5-band Graphic Equalizer, a Solo control for added versatility in live situations and a new 4-button footswitch. With a 2-channel setup and your choice of 5, 25 or 50-watts on either channel, The Mesa Boogie Express 5:50+ head is ideal for both live work and studio recording and at home jamming.

Packed with features for incredible versatility

The Mesa Express 5:50+ features an improved clean mode with fat, warm, low-end and increased high-end sparkle. The new Mesa Express Plus amps also feature  Mesa’s unique Multi-Watt Channel Assignable Power with Duo-Class and Dyna-Watt technologies, letting you run your power tubes in any of three different wattage ratings (5/25/50) per channel. The legendary 5-band Graphic EQ is also included- now with additional controls that let you footswitch or auto-assign the EQ sliders or the Preset control in each channel. Another classic Mesa Boogie feature that adds versatility to any performance is the addition of a foot switchable Solo control, which acts as a second Master Output control so you can preset the perfect amount of volume boost for solos. A new 4-button footswitch gives ready access to Channels, Reverb, EQ and Solo. Yeah- to say that the feature set on the Mesa Boogie Express 5:50 Plus is impressive would be an understatement.

Dyna-Watt power selection and four tone modes!

The Mesa/Boogie Express 5:50+ head features three completely different power on each of its two, fully independent channels. There are also selectable modes to further dial in the tone you crave- Clean and Blues handle the more traditional end of the spectrum, while Crunch and Burn are perfect for higher gain enthusiasts.

Choose the 5 watt setting for the single-ended magic of pure Class A tube tone. The 25 watt settings gives you medium Class A, push-pull output that’s ideal for jamming and smaller gigs. For larger gigs the Express 5:50+ has a 50-watt Class A/B setting for more volume or headroom. Remember- these are selectable individually for each channel as well- So you can select 50 watts clean for massive, baritone headroom and 5 watts on the gain channel for dime’d, high-gain power tube saturation.

Contour depth control for added tone shaping

As if you weren’t getting enough already, each channel of the Mesa/Boogie Express 5:50+ is also equipped with its own Contour depth control for added tone shaping that’s assignable and footswitchable. Contour can be used sapringly to add a halo of depth and chime to gleaming clean sounds. Higher Contour settings, especially in the Crunch and Burn modes, take the Express 5:50 into Recto territory for tight, huge and menacing high-gain tones. Don’t be fooled by the compact size of the Express 5:50+ head; it’s more than capable of keeping up with a live band while providing the tonality, nuance, and flexibility you need at home or in the studio.
