I must admit I am VERY happy. However I kinda wanna retube, simply because I bought the amp used and would feel better if I just 'started from scratch'. The guy told me it has 'less than 40 hrs of use on it'. Would it be ok to change tubes one section at a time (I might do preamp tubes first...

Took the DR to practice today. AMAZING. So much tone - my bassist looked up at me when playing all our songs - the tone was just so great! I love this thing - so versatile, was able to coax chimey cleans, fenderesque/mark-esque solo tones using the 'pushed mode', great midrangy bark from the...

I'm here at work, and my dual recto came!!! YESSS! I Can't wait to try it. I wanted to thank everyone for helping me make a deciison on the amp. I had the amp shipped - it's really hard to concentrate with its gorgeous diamond plate staring back at me. :) Quick question though, just had a...

If I email my amp's serial number to Mesa, can they give me an accurate date of when it was made?

i dont get it, do you wanna switch between the 2 channels or do you wanna switch between the modesof the channels? based on what i've read when it comes to the rectos, no you cant switch between the modes - just the channels and the fx loop on/off.

Hey. I'm about to buy a used 3-channel Dual Recto, and wondering when Mesa intro'd the 3-channels and replaced the 2-channel rectos? Thanks. BTW. Thanks for everyone's help. I finally had a chance to compare the F-50 I bought with a stiletto and Dual Recto, and decided the Dual Recto is...

I've came to the conclusion, that while the F-50 is loud enough and sounds great - maybe I might just return it and look for a dual recto to try out. Playing my friends dual recto, I was extremely blown away by the tone, sounded alot better than the single recto (IMO) rect-o-verb I bought. I...

PM sent.

I know. I was very dissappointed at first. IT seemed like when I ran my efx through the efx loop - the volume was cut in half. Took out the efx, noticeable jump in volume. Not that I don't like the tone of the F-50 - it's just I feel I will probably end up selling the F-50 later on for...

Not that I couldn't be heard - more like I didn't have enough headroom. Now, I'm thinking an external cab for the F-50 would prob fix the problem too. However, I am curious to how a Dual recto would sound. Plus I've always wanted one after playing my friend's dual. :)

Hey. I have a couple of questions for you guys. If you remember, I recently bought a brand new F-50. Now, I have the oppurtunity to return it and get a used 3-chan Dual Recto head for around the same price. First off, do you guys think thats a better idea? I played the F-50 at practice...

Yeah. I'd like to know too. I just bought an F-50 and curious to the tone difference.

Thanks for the responses guys. The ROV i got was a floor/demo model, however it did look completely spotless and new. They couldn't tell me how long it's been on the floor for but it looked new. Also the sound was pretty comparable to the other 10 ROV's ive played. The F-50 was brand new in...

Hey! I've finally joined the ranks and bought my first boogie. Actually 2, but I ended up keeping one. I went to GC and finally decided to purchase a 50 W combo amp, rather than a head and 2x12" cab, so that I may take the amp home after practice, and then if needed, purchase a cabinet for...

Yeah me too. I love documentation and I love all the crap they talk about. :)

Thanks for the reply. The NuMetal tone was something I wanted in High School. I think i've finally grown up (finally!) and want something a little more three-dimensional and clearer. I suppose I still want a tone thats just as heavy and gainy, but more clearer, fluid, and unique. The thing is...

Hi. Long time reader, first time poster. I've always wanted to buy a new amplifier and at the same time i've wanted a Mesa. I recently joined a cover band project with my former bassist and now I'm in the market for a new amp. The thing is, I really don't know which amp to start with. I've...
