    3 ch Dual Recto Footswitch Question

    Yes I know. My original question was whether this one would also work. http://mesa.stores.yahoo.net/fcrec-b.html

    3 ch Dual Recto Footswitch Question

    Thanks. I saw those but they don't have one specifically for the 3 ch DRs.

    Rectifier / Stiletto 2x12 vs Stiletto (Traditional) 4x12

    Thanks guys. "As for a Stiletto 4 x 12, nothing really will sound quite like it other than a Stiletto 4 x 12" In my heart, I also know this is true. I can't tell you guys how many amps and cabs I've been through over the years looking for the sound I want, and I had it with the DR+Stiletto...

    List your Recto's preamp tubes please :)

    Fluff - Which power tubes are you running with this combo? Are you still running the TAD WGC short bottle 6L6s per your post last fall?

    Rectifier / Stiletto 2x12 vs Stiletto (Traditional) 4x12

    Hi guys, I am re-purchasing a rig that I stupidly sold last year :( Did a search on this and found some related info, but not specific to my question. Anyway, previous rig was a 3ch (non-multi-watt) Dual Rec and a Traditional/Stiletto 4x12. It was **** near perfect tone-wise for me. I...

    3 ch Dual Recto Footswitch Question

    I need a replacement footswitch for my "version 1" (non-multi-watt) 3 channel dual recto. The original footswitch was a 5 button, single row. The "version 2" multi-watt versions came with a 6 button, two row footswitch. My question is will the 6 button, two row switch for the multi-watt...

    Cab advice for a Roadking II

    Between Oversized/Standard and Traditional/Stiletto, I agree with what most people have said here: depends on what tone you want to get. Oversized/Standard sounds more scooped, bigger bass, higher top end - probably what a lot of metal players want. Traditional/Stiletto is tighter, more...

    Short Bottle 6L6 + Dual Recto = Amazing Tone

    Thanks! I had the TAD WGC short bottles in an Egnater amp previously, and really liked them in that amp - I hadn't considered putting them in my DR, but now I def. am.

    Short Bottle 6L6 + Dual Recto = Amazing Tone

    Sorry if a dumb question, but I'm assuming that I don't need to worry the bias if I wanted to try out these tubes - should be just plug and play, right? Just making sure b/c I know Boogie is not like other amp manufacturers w.r.t non-Mesa tubes.

    Dialing Your Amp In: Ear Plugs Or Not?

    Sounds like the your molds weren't done properly. I had one pair that didn't fit right - I took them back and they redid the molds free of charge. Mine fit very snug - don't pop out or lose seal when I talk/sing/yawn/etc.

    Anyone know why Mesa discontinued the old Rect 4x12?

    +1. I tried and tried to live with a 2x12, mainly because of weight and size....but the sound I wanted just wasn't there. I even tried stacking 2 2x12s, trying to get the tone but maintain portability, but no dice. 4x12s aren't just about being bigger with more speakers - they actually sound...

    Dialing Your Amp In: Ear Plugs Or Not?

    Go to an ENT, or any place that makes hearing aids. Tell them you need musicians ear plugs. Mine cost about $150. Best $150 I've spent on music gear - doesn't kill the sound like typical hardware store type plugs. As for dialing in my tones - I do it without plugs.....that is what everyone...

    Anyone know the dimensions of the 5 button footswitch?

    Got it. For posterity: 14x5

    Anyone know the dimensions of the 5 button footswitch?

    Does anyone know offhand the dimensions of the 5 button footswitch for the 3 channel Rectifiers (the previous gen before the last rev that made it a 6 button, 2 row)? Thanks!

    Dual Rec FX Loop - Possible to use as a tuner out?

    Good points 94. There's always some compromise....I'm just happy to be back with a Boogie after all these years - I forgot how much I missed these amps!

    HOT TUBES = BETTER SOUND?

    Yes, tubes always sound better after they have warmed up for 15-20 mins. Even if you just put your amp in standby for 15 mins before you start playing, it sounds better.

    Dual Rec FX Loop - Possible to use as a tuner out?

    Sure, but IME, "true bypass" pedals still impact your tone, unless they are completely passive, which not many pedals are - not as obviously or badly as non-true bypass, but there is still a signal degradation when they are in the path, even when "truly bypassed". I use the tuner at the...

    Dual Rec FX Loop - Possible to use as a tuner out?

    Understand about the Slave - I was actually talking about using the Slave just the feed the tuner and then plugging dummy leads into the FX loop and using the FX button as a mute. But dummy leads would be an open circuit unless they were shorted, so I wasn't sure if the Dual Rec would see an...

    Dual Rec FX Loop - Possible to use as a tuner out?

    When I have the tuner in the FX loop, as long as I have it plugged into the RETURN, it mutes the amp because there is no signal passing through the return - well, nearly mutes it since it is a parallel loop so there is always some original signal getting past the loop. The tuner itself is...
