    Dual Rectifier characterizations

    Sick gear. I just spent about an hour researching rectifiers. I think I might not want to go that way. They do have a great sound. But part of that is, that sound was all over various albums in the 90s and I think I want to go a different route. Also, the couple of videos I watched talked...

    Dual Rectifier characterizations

    So, I got my DC-2 back yesterday, pots cleaned, new power tubes. Thanks for putting it in perspective of 'meant to played live in a mix'. I am a drummer first and a guitar owner second. I am unsure I'll ever be gig-ready on guitar. But I like how tubes sound over anything solid state. And I...

    Dual Rectifier characterizations

    MultiWatt is sounding more like the way to go. I haven't added a 7- or 8-string to my arsenal yet (eventually I will want to tackle deftones' catalogue). But I will be content to play 6 strings, and have a heavier tone with the MultiWatt. I like that it has the option to play either 100W or...

    Dual Rectifier characterizations

    New to the Boogie

    Growing up, I've heard great tales of the Dual Rectifier. I've looked for them since on Reverb and whatnot. How hard is it to find a Dual Rectifier these days?

    New to the Boogie

    I was on the verge of buying a friend's Dual Caliber DC-5. But I only play at home in my mancave. 50 W might be too much for the household and neighbors. Instead settled for a Studio Caliber DC-2 Combo. Got a good deal on Reverb. Having her cleaned out now by a friend electrician. So...

    My Studio Caliber DC-2 is different than the manual

    Hey gang, I took ownership of a Studio Caliber DC-2 combo amp last week, and I'm still getting to know her. There are differences than what I see in the manual from the Out of Production site at Mesa: The Lead/Rhythm toggle instead is a Lead/Rhythm/Contour toggle. Leaving the three-way...
