The Big
Block 750™ from Mesa Engineering
Bassists who Rock gotta have the Big Block. And here
it is...
Answering your demands for a rig bad enough
to anchor our Recto’s wall of gain, here is 750
watts of crushing fundamental. Pure and Mean.
Simplicity rules this front panel. No high-tech overkill
between you and fast, fat tone. Straight-ahead
circuitry delivers instant attack with massive authority.
Just the brutal, potent truth, served up with mighty
attitude.
Our exclusive Simul-State™ technology provides all-tube performance from Input jack
right up to the dual MOSFET power blocks.
A classic all-tube tone stack is augmented by an additional Active Mid with a sweepable Frequency control. This lets you zero in on the precise region of attack to let you drive the band where it needs to go.

Big Block features
dual MID controls. A wide band PASSIVE MID takes
care of overall midrange blend while the semi-parametric
ACTIVE MID lets you focus in on specific regions.
|
A footswitchable all-tube Overdrive, sporting its own dedicated Drive and Master controls, adds a menacing growl to your sound, sinking teeth into the mix.
 |
 |
|
All Tube Overdrive circuit allows
a warm range of distortion, from subtle fur to a
rebellious grind. Overdrive MASTER gives you a separate
volume level for the Overdrive mode.

Twin fans cool the dual power blocks arrayed with no less than 12 custom matched MOS-FET output devices. Even these power units are directly driven by one of the 8 tube stages in the Big Block 750. This is Simul-State. Tight and focused, warm and musical.
 |
| M-Pulse All-Tube Preamp
guarantees musical warmth all the way through the
tube driver stage. Dual power blocks with dual cooling
fans house a battery of 12 custom mosfets! Massive
toroidial transformer produces stunning current while
reducing noise. |
For convenience, Tuner outputs are provided front and rear. Rear panel features also include a series Effects Loop and a Slave Out with its own dedicated Level control.

Handy Front and Rear
Panel Tuner Outputs with Footswitchable Mute Function

A balanced XLR Direct Out is
switchable between Pre and Post and includes a separate Level control and Ground Lift. Quarter inch and Speak-On jacks deliver this massive horsepower to the cabinet(s) of your choice.

The massive power
of Big Block calls for Heavy Duty “Speak-On” XLR
speaker outputs. Current this big likes a wide road
to travel on. Standard ¼ inch are also provided
for compatibility with any cabinet.

The
heritage of rock bass has been built on vacuum
tube tone. The Big Block
750 elevates today’s
bass performance
while paying homage to that great tradition.
Here is a menacing new amp that's infused with
the percussion, warmth and feel of an
all-tube classic while
providing double or even triple the output power …and
at a fraction of the weight.
