I have owned both... Roadster has a tighter bottom end to it. they both have TONS of gain... I thought my 3 channel recto had a tad more. Roadster has ALOT more features but I liked the 3 channel recto better for myself because it sounder larger to me. Not as thin as the Roadster. Hope that...

I owned a V3 for about 9 days over the summer. It doesent come anywhere close to the boogie sound or feel or quality. Its much "smaller" sounding. I gave it every chance and played the hell out of it and configured it in every way possible with and without various effects including the g-major...

I had one... I put JJ ecc83's in all the preamp spots and it darkened it up a bit (stock it was just real bright). this tamed the highs and gave it a bit more edge on the gain. I used the fluid drive and after a bit of eq'ing it was a good amp. Its more of a Marshall British sounding amp. The...

I had both the 3 channel dual rec and the Roadster... I sold the Roadster after a few months... The Roadster didnt get as big sounding as the Dual rec to me. It was tighter and thinner sounding. I thought the Roadster would be a Dual Rec with an extra channel and more bells and whistles but...

Yeah it worked... I just didnt trust it after all that strange voltage had been passed thru it...

Yeah... Mine looked like a strobe light going off when you hit the power in just one power tube... I just cleaned all the tube sockets and connections real well and hit the solder joints and it never done it again. I think I might have switched power tubes out as well... But as I said before...

Allen Music has a tube amp repair guy. I believe his name is Ted. Give him a call on monday and he will talk with you about it. He works cheap and fast to. Could be a loose connection or a bad solder joint. I had the same thing happen to a Lee Jackson head once and I cleaned all the tube...

Sounds to me like you got JJ's from Bob! :lol: But seriously... pull those out and put your old ones in and replace the fuse with the same type... Radioshack carries them. I tried Bobs tubes and Blew a fuse to... It was the GZ34 rectifier tubes. He told me to go up a fuse size... I pulled...

I like my brit mode. I get a great classic "brit" tone out of mine... 100 watt mode tube rec bold gain: 3:30 volume: 10:00 bass: 2:00 mid: 2:00 high: 12:00 presence: 9:30

If your happy with it then leave it stock.

I tried the veteran 30's with my Dual rec... My experience with them was they didnt have anywhere near the lows that a Celestion V-30 has. Much thinner sounding to my ears with harsh highs. I promptly went back to a stock Mesa cab with Celestions and tweaked it in and have been happy. I am...

I chose the Roadster simply because it was more simple with less odds of having a major malfunction with all the "extra" gizmos that I really wouldnt use anyway. No regrets on my choice. But I am sure the Roadking is awesome as well. Aint no Bad Boogies... just different ones!

I have both... Get the Roadster... You wont be disappointed!

I must have gotten a GREAT Dual Rec when I got mine. My clean sounds fantastic! Nice and full. Not quite as glassy and perfect as the Stiletto but nice all the same. I to have had both the Triple channel Dual Rec & a series 1 Trident. Both are fantastic amps. The Dual Rec just has a more...

Head and cab... If over time you can collect a few good cabs its easy to just swap out and have a bigger tonal range.

Right now I am using fat/brit/vintage/modern. but I am thinking about changing it up a bit... there are ALOT of great tones in there with just the flip of a switch.

I agree completely!!! :D

In my opinion that head in that condition is worth about 600 bucks tops... I dont know what value you put on your sg... but I would think that anything less than an even trade wouldnt be fair to you.

CONGRATS!!! Great amp... I had a series 1 trident and it rocked!

Hey, I got a Roadster Halfstack and I absolutely love it. Its 4 great amps in one box. I play ALOT of different styles and plug various guitars into it and it ALWAYS sounds good. The Roadster has sweet cleans all the way to blistering metal tones and literally EVERYTHING in between. I cant see...
