Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Mint
We're longtime Mesa devotees and the Walkabout Scout is no exception. The voicing of the Walkabout head retains that all-tube dimension and warmth that you can't get any other way, while keeping the weight and size down thanks to the Mosfet power section. The cabinet is in perfect condition and features a bottom port for true floor rumbling, room shaking, bass.
From Mesa Boogie
THE WALKABOUT® SCOUT™ CONVERTIBLE BASS COMBO. IT’S A HEAD. IT’S A COMBO. IT’S BOTH. AND EITHER WAY, THE TONE IS HUGE
Yet this is one petite rig. Start with the WalkAbout® head: 300 watts, 13 lbs., an all-tube preamp and our proprietary Simul-State™ Power featuring a tube Driver and mosfet Power Block. Then, dock all that musical performance within our Scout™ Radiator Combo Cabinet and you have an incredible one-trip hybrid Bass rig offering the best of tube and mosfet characteristics in one super-versatile package. Warm, round, huge, old-school Tone may be its most-described attribute, but its portability is likely enjoyed by players just as much.
