Mesa Boogie Boogie 22Cal preset
Close · 62/100 confidence. Most values readable. Minor gaps filled by inference from similar circuits.
The 22 Caliber is Mesa Boogie's compact, lower-wattage offering that retains the company's signature cascading-gain voicing in a more portable and practice-friendly package. At 22 watts it breaks up earlier than the larger Mark series, making it ideal for smaller venues where natural power-amp saturation is achievable at manageable volumes. Its straightforward single-channel layout appeals to players who prefer simplicity without sacrificing Mesa's characteristic tone.
