I am going to be in the market for a new amp in about 6 months so I have been doing some research. I came across this review at Gear-Vault.com for the Mesa Boogie Roadster. I really like the fact that it has most of the same features as the Road King without all the back panel technology. I love music but I'm no techie. Anyone have any experience with this model that could offer a first hand review?

When it comes to amps. As long as they have complete parts and that they're loud a they're used to be, I but them.

I've never played through the Roadster, but I agree with you Sasha about the Road King having too many controls. I tried one at Guitar Center and gave up after a few minutes because I couldn't get my head wrapped around all the features. I guess I'm a 'plug in and play' guy.
