Delay and or reverb pedals will sound best through the loop, OD and others up front. Any good OD pedal (MXR, Fulltone, etc.) will sound good, but you may feel some bass drop out unless the pedal also has some bass boosting feature. Just avoid the distortion pedals since the amp doesn't need...

you may not need an attenuator, you can run or add a volume knob box through it and turn it down. They sell them on ebay as "volume attenuators"

Because: A) You can pick these amps up cheap. Well under a $1000, usually $750 - 900. B) They deliver the rectifier sound! C) They are simple and way less fussy than a dual or triple, with less to go wrong. D) Lighter and easier to transport E) More than loud enough for a gig, Quiet enough...

How much bass boost does it have on tap? Does it add a noticeable heavy bottom end or just a little to make up for the bass lost with most of typical boost pedals?

The brand name is TrioPines. Is the traklock base for 2" vs" 3" a different size base?

Anyone try the FLUX drive with a Stiletto. I was wondering if the flux bass knob boosted the bottom end in a noticeable rectifier way ?

Are the mesa casters which slide into the trak-loc generic casters that can be found at most hardware stores, or something unique to Mesa? Thanks.

If you do take the chassis out, be carefull of potential filter cap shock hazard!

I have a Deuce II. Does any one have high volume gig experience using a 2x12 or 4x12 rectifier with a deuce vs. a traditional stiletto cabinet? I am looking for more bottom end or a boost to the bass like with a rectifier head. Thanks.

Can't decide cabinet which looks cooler with both heads......black grill or grey/black weave? OR

What about a low (bedroom) volume. which cab has a deeper sound 2x12 recto or 3/4 back ?

I have a solo rectifier and and a stiletto head that I am running through a set of 1 x 12 cabinets (3/4 series) with black shadows. Anyone have experience with a 2x12 rectifier cabinet with v30's compared to the 1x12 3/4 back cabinet? Which sounds fuller with a lower bottom?

The deuce is the most bad *** looking amp in the world. I think they will be lusted after once they are gone.

I had a rectoverb II which had that great hot sound, but I did not think the reverb was anything to write home about. I tried it against the series I. The II had a 3 modes in the hot channel instead of 2, and the reverb knobs on the front panel instead of the back. You can also consider a...
