Olie, the Mesas are not as up front as GK's and not as bassy as Edens.  They are kind of balanced in the middle.  The 4x10 is heavy, 98 lbs.

Whoa, that is heavy. Keeps you in shape carrying it around though.
I am thinking about buying some new cabs but am not sure what to go with yet. I am looking at Bag End, GK and the Mesa's. I ccurrently use a 1x15 and 2 x10 swr cabs. They sound pretty good and would concider new SWR's if it weren't for the fact that Fender make's them now. I don't have a lot confidence in Fender electronics or cabs lately.

I took a couple of pictures yesterday.  Note the old style tuners and the recessed straplocks.
