4 space Dual Rectifier Rackmount questions???

[zerofivefour]

I've had my 4 space dual rectifier rackmount for nearly 10 years. I absolutely love it.
I was wondering when the 4 space rackmount version was introduced by mesa, (what was the first year of production)?

Thanks for any info.

Cheers,

Tom

Ok, I am fairly certain that the rack version of the Dual Rectifier was indeed introduced along side the amp head version in 1992.

This is based on...

1: The fact that my "racktifier" has a low serial number...R-00103X

2: Someone, (on another forum), with DR having the serial number of 1144 reported that his was dated as being made in 1992 in the chasis. There are several other guys posting serials that coincide with his report as well.

If the above is true, then the rack version was definitely made in 1992.

So I conclude that the rack version was introduced in 1992 along side the head version. Of course I could be wrong. I tried calling mesa, but they did not return my call.

Cheers,

Tom
