Guessing < two years, last 'batch' of new Mesa amps that came through
here that I can personally testify had some of the subject bottles were
fall out from the great 'Mars Music Collapse'.
But FWIW I'm quite sure that numerous Mesa dealers have new rigs on the

useage over the last ten years. It was popular as shipped for their
stereo power amps and Dual Rectifiers.)
