Ditto. I recently discovered the 'spongy' setting while trying to learn VH tunes. :)

What is the dealer's return policy? If there isn't a restocking fee I would return the amp and exchange it for something else, if you aren't happy. I did that with the first Rectoverb, The F-50 and finally my Recto cab when I purchased the DR off ebay.

I don't think the Stilettos can just take 6L6's without the installation of a pot in the circuit to correct bias voltage. Feel free to correct me.

All the aforementioned amps are great - considering you have a budget for it, and again, an F-series or Express are probably some of the most versatile Mesa's, and they aren't too bad on the wallet either. I was about to recommend the Single Rectifier Rectoverb combo, of if you can find it, a...

Honestly, I think my 2x12" Horizontal Recto cab is enough. But, if you really need the extra movement of air, I'd rather get 2 2x12's - you could bring 1 or both depending on the venue.

Yeah that's true.

Hey. I found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/TUFFBOX-Case-for-MESA-BOOGIE-TRIPLE-RECTIFIER-HEAD-H_W0QQitemZ290083310252QQihZ019QQcategoryZ121163QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem it looks like the answer for my need for a hardcase that doesen't necessarily have to have the ATA cert and the pricetag. Anyone tried...

If it sounds great, who really cares how it looks?

Thanks for the responses guys. Turmoil - I know a case like that would be the abosolute best, but that's actually what I don't want - as in its too much for my budget and what I need. But thanks though. :) I don't really know what my budget is: maybe something around 50-75 the most.

Hey. I'm looking for a hardcase to keep my Dual Recto head in, but the thing is I don't have much to spend. :) I really need something more protective than the Mesa slip cover, but I don't necessarily need something that can survive in a plane's baggage hold, I probably wont be playing any...

Yeah they are. I love my Horizontal Recto 2x12" cab.

Yeah I saw that one too - I think on ebay or craigslist, i don't remember, but on closer look it is a Single Recto.

Wow that axetrak looks pretty good. I think I might try that. Also - would I start a fire with the headphones in the speaker jack :)

Yeah, I think I might pick up the Behringer plus the Hotplate. I kinda feel the hotplate is a good investment anyway, as it will probably stay as I go through amps in the future. I was thinking, I have the Pod XT - could I use that as a cabinet sim?

How much are you willing to spend? A great pedal is the ElectroHarmonix Holy Grail reverb pedal. You can also get a good rack processor like G major.

I have a Pod XT. It's decent. Ironically, after using the F-50 with headphones, and going back to the Pod XT - the pod sounded really fake and lifeless.

Yeah I saw that. I heard that was one of the best loadbox/speaker emulators but the $800+ tag is a little too much :) Any other ideas?

When I bought the F-50, it was a 'virgin'. Still in the shipping box, sitting below the floor model F-50. When I bought the Rectoverb before that, it was a floor model, but no joke it was extremely fresh, they couldn't tell me how long it was on the floor.

Thanks. I was researching attenuators, but the hotplate's line out isn't speaker emulated, wouldn't it sound really fuzzy? Or does it sound have way decent?
