Here is a video on YouTube of an amp catching fire (actually looks like a sub to me).

I've seen fires in action & I knew the whole place was in danger, but it took awhile to get people motivated!! :lol:
Now we wait to hear back from the guru's at Mesa Boogie... Here in the US, after the Great White fire thing, they probably would have been there by the time you could say "FI..."]]> Live Sound jwmartin https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302849 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302809 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:34:36 +0000 Live Sound Ricochet https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302809 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302797 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 12:29:17 +0000
Rang the place where it's going to be repaired, a wholesaler my old man & I have been using for years (when we can afford stuff :lol: ).

They're expecting it to arrive today & will down tools to have a look & get it back to us asap, as we've got some important gigs comming up (to us, anyway). They said that Mesa Boogie USA has already contacted them (as one of our dudes went straight to the source & woke up at 4am local time to call them in California) and are very interested in what went 'bang'. I dont think many Mesa's catch on fire these days :lol:

Everyone (including Mesa) have been really good about it so far, too. Hopefully the whole thing will be sorted soon & the old man can get back to rocking foundations instead of setting them alight!

Can't say enough about the good guys at 'Pro Audio' in Canberra, they've been the most helpful, professional guys I've ever dealt with. Buy something from them.
Same goes for our local GAS therapist Guitar Exchange, where we got the rig!
Now we just need it back in time for those gigs!!!!

Rock on!]]> Live Sound Rob77 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302797 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mesa-boogie-meltdown/#post-302352 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 04:02:55 +0000 It was really surprising how none of the bar staff or bouncers react when you start yelling "FIRE, GET AN F'ING FIRE EXTINGUISHER!!!"
