I use the MESA STR-450 TUBES. I no longer worry about thin tone. sometimes it is too warm. check out those video's i did on youtube to hear the tone out of those tubes...and the harsh tone out of an ACE with jj-el34's. the Deuce with the 450's is very nice indeed.

I absolutely HATED the way my ACE and Deuce II sounded with the jj EL34L's. I spent the $$ on the STR-450's, and am very pleased.

So I have had folks ask me in the past what amp I was using during a gig before, because they dug the tone...but last night was quite interesting...and another night where the Stiletto ruled the night. There were 5 or 6 other bands there that night, and actually, I was impressed with the first...

no worries. get a NEW resistor if you want, or just Re-solder that on the board, but do it Upside down, so this way if it were to happen again, it would fall IN, not OUT. I had a thread a long time ago on an ACE i bought, with pictures and all. look for it. but that's pretty much all there...

I do believe this has been sold. Thanks for your interest.

Wanted to see if i got any bites on this one... So for my next video, I would like to invite 1 very good lead player (as i am typically a Rhythm player) to come over and play through all my amps, somewhat in the style of my other video's, in which you will get recorded playing the same thing...

Spent all night recording this and getting the video up on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TAiIWBBmnw A Mesa Boogie comparison between a Triaxis and 2:90, Stiletto Deuce II, Dual Recto Pre500, Marshall JMP-1 and EL34 100/100, and ADA MP-1 3TM. I have another of these videos on...

I had an Ace combo. It was too bright and hurt my ears. I sold it and bought a Deuce II. It's become my main amp for one of my bands. go with the Duece...it has more low end. The Ace is REALLY bright, and in a band situation...was really really bright.

what are you using to get the signal to both amps? (2 amps, 2 cabs, or 2 amps, 1 cab)? what pedal or aby?

With the Stiletto or Rectifier, I use the Boss as well for my high gain stuff and when playing live (when using my gretsch hollow body). i have it set up strong however, to cut instantly. however, without it, I get a lot of squeeling and howling when cranking the amp too loud and being too...

here's what i have discovered so far... on Ch. 2 Red, i have the mid to about 3'oclock, bass about 12:30, presence about 11:45, Treble about 12, gain 12:30. What really makes the difference is the guitar AND the pickups. With a mahogany guitar loaded with an Duncan Distortion, so far this is...

actually the other reason i got it was to create the wonderful tones of running the Stiletto Deuce II and the Dual Rectifier TOGETHER!! I tried it and you can't believe how this setup sounds...

Oh, i was quite aware of what i was buying this time around... We have all heard of the fabled "Pre-500" and while i had the 2 ch. later 90's recto before, and it WAS different than the 3ch. Triple i had, i wasn't blown away by it at all, and sold it shortly after buying it. I found this for...

heh... I have played guitar for almost 20 years. But I can remember how bad my ears were ringing after the first time i plugged in my first Mesa Triple Rectifier. I actually sold the Triple as i felt it was just too **** loud, and didn't like the Buzzsaw effect, and bought a Recto Pre and a...

Just picked this up tonight, so haven't had much play time on it, and now going out of town for the weekend! but I did crank it up a bit before i had to go, and i think i do hear a difference between this older model and all my other rectos (i have a Triaxis with the recto board, had a Recto...

dammit. some guy who lives right around the corner from me decided to sell his Dual Rectifier #112 and wants $1450 for it...and wont let me pay with Paypal! I could have went this afternoon and bought it from him, if he let me, but instead i went to the amp shop and played a Diezel Herbert for...

howdy. i was just playing through my Triaxis this weekend adding some new patches in, and noticed an issue that i haven't seen before... while i was editing a patch, the Triaxis would suddenly lock up, then display 2.0 2.0 2.0 2.0 2.0 as if it was just turned on, then it would resume back to...

what gear are you trying to get?
