I don't have any interest in that kind of pedal.
If someone want to sound like a Mesa with a Fender... get a Wampler Triple Wreck... you'll get more sounds out of the Wampler.

I just see 4 Drive Pedals. I see no statement that they will nail a special Trademark sound...
Let's wait how they sound. Judging by their amps these pedals may sound very good :idk:

This, totally.

I don't think (judging from the info on the website) that these are meant to be "Recto in a box" or "the Mark IV"

None of those 4 pedals say they're meant to emulate a specific amp. I think they'll have similar qualities or maybe capture that "Mesa" tone, but it looks like they go in their own direction.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess those pedals emulate their amp channels. Can't imagine Mesa entering the clusterfuck that is the OD/drive market any other way.

Who knows tho, maybe they're uniquely awesome and priced right? Anything's possible...

Looks like they're similar to pedals that are already on the market. One appears to be a Tubescreamer clone, another one is a transparent low gain OD, and I didn't look at the other two. Unless these are stupid cheap, I'm not going to pay them much attention.

I played the Bogner Red and blue and they are stupid good
if Mesa can take some amp magic and jam it into pedals good for them
Looked like pretty standard overdrive/boost stuff, but I like the clean builds, not everyone can pull off insane graphics and if you can't you better not try,

I think the tone burst is just a simple treble booster from what the description said

So it would be more like
Rangemaster/TS/SD1/SeekWah

Did anyone listen to the clips on Mesa's site yet?

I definitely smell a throttle box coming my way.
