Mesa Boogie Triple Crown TC-100 Head (Black/Carbon)

The Triple Crown series is built for players who refuse to compromise. Three channels take you from pristine clean to high-gain saturation heavy enough to satisfy even the most devoted gain hound.

MIDI programmability, Multi-Soak power control, and a built-in CabClone make it equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in the bedroom.

Three Independent Channels

Every channel has its own Gain, Treble, Mid, Bass, Presence, and Master controls, plus Multi-Soak power control and rear-panel Reverb.

• Channel 1 (Clean): Normal or Drive modes
• Channel 2 (Low Gain): Normal or Tight modes
• Channel 3 (High Gain): Normal or Tight modes

Award-Winning Features

• MIDI control
• Reverb
• Buffered series FX loop
• CabClone DI output with three cabinet voicings

Multi-Soak Power Control

Nothing has the grunt and kick of a 100-watt head, but all that power is only useful if you can control it. The Triple Crown delivers punch and aggression on demand, then tames it with the flick of a switch for home or studio use.

Every channel has its own Multi-Soak attenuator with five power settings:

• 100 watts: full power and headroom
• 50 watts
• 20 watts
• 7 watts
• 3 watts: low-power clip-ability

That multiplies the versatility of each channel many times over.

Switchable Power Tubes

Want one amp that does it all? The Triple Crown runs EL34, 6L6, or 6V6 power tubes, giving you plenty of room to sculpt your tone and feel with the flick of a switch.

Note: loading 6V6 tubes cuts the amp’s wattage in half.
