    Mini Rectifier - Using a Tube Screamer

    Not a bad option by any means! Do it. You'll be very satisfied. Do the same thing - Tone in the middle, overdrive all the way off, and level all the way up. It smacks that front end so hard everything becomes so tight and responsive, it's electrifying.

    Mini Rectifier - Using a Tube Screamer

    I'd take a Maxon OD808 over any other tubescreamer-like boost any day. It's the original, and is so much more transparent than any other. Gain at 0, Tone at noon, Balance maxed out, you'll be in tight percussive responsive thrash rhythm heaven.

    Is boosting a Recto overrated?

    I think those of you who don't (won't?) boost are looking at it the wrong way. It's not about necessity. At least it shouldn't be. It's about flavour and feel. A clean boost isn't about adding gain, it's about changing the character of your signal, and the subsequent response from the amp...

    Reborn Dual Recs - Less gain on tap than the originals?

    They're certainly brighter and clearer! The biggest difference for me was the fact that the presence knob is actually very usable beyond 12 o'clock :lol: I actually run mine at around 1-2o'clock, no harshness. The previous models I had to keep it around 9 o'clock otherwise it was just insane.

    Reborn Dual Recs - Less gain on tap than the originals?

    Hi everyone, I'm new to the board. Should have signed up a long old time ago really as I've been a Mesa user for years... Anyway, I've owned and played several pre-Reborn Dual and Triple rectifiers. In 2014 I bought a reborn Dual Rectifier, and it's by far my favourite amp I've ever owned...
