I just acquired a very clean single-owner Lone Star Classic 4x10 combo and am beyond pleased with it. Very deep, full, soulful vibe. I already owned a 2x12 Heartbreaker and was concerned about duplication but they both have their own respective great points and complement each other. Really appreciate this vid, which helped motivate my decision to find one; great playing! The 4x10s are particularly difficult to get today; not very many were built and it was available for a short time during the production run.
They don’t seem to offer these anymore. I’ve seen that they used to offer lower power versions. Any idea why they don’t seem to be making the Lonestar anymore?
COVID affected parts availability and Mesa discontinued the Lone Star line, replacing it with the Fillmore series. The California Tweed is also a clean-focused Fender-type of amp.
I have Lonestar special now and have tried Lonestar Classic once.
I love both of them.
Your review is so deep and also nice play.
Thanks.

Mesa is a smaller boutique amp builder... they have had a history making changes... part of their DNA.
