92' Dual Recto R-0028 (rev C/pre-500) for sale

[Kung-Fool]

This is the 28th Dual Rectifier off the line. All original. Condition is an easy 9.5 out of 10. One small visible nick in the leather and a few small nicks on the very bottom of the headshell which are completely out of sight. The chassis is in excellent condition. The amp is in 100% working order with no issues at all. You all know the "pre-500" deal so I won't bore you with all the details on how great it sounds. Loaded with all Mesa tubes. The power section has STR440 6L6's(low hours), and the rectifier tubes are brand new. Comes with footswitch and cover. The amp will ship in a Mesa box with all factory packaging.

$2000 shipped and insured to the lower 48. I don't mind shipping overseas if you pay the shipping. I accept Postal MO's and Certified Bank Checks. Paypal is ok if you're willing to cover the fee. I have 100% feedback on Ebay and I have a ton of references on Harmony Central and here on the Boogie Board. Feel free to PM me with any questions.

I'm also open to partial trades but I need to clear at least $1400 so please keep that in mind if making a trade offer. I might be able to make a small exception for something really nice.

Wow - where were you when I was in the market a few months back? That is a seriously nice amp and a more than fair price.... Before I settled for my 15xx, I had a bid in at right around 2k for 109 or something like that - and although it had the reverse cosmetics, it wasn't in nearly as good of shape.

I have/had #29, which is this thing's brother, and I can personally vouch that it sounds amazing! The cleans are nothing to write home about, but the Red channel is pure destruction!

Whoever ends up buying this, here are a couple of tips:
To get a somewhat chimey clean, bump the presence, treble, and mids WAY up. Keep the gain and bass moderately set. Crank the volume 100%.

On the red channel, knock the presence down to about 9-10 oclock, or else it'll be very bright.

What Rev. board would be on DR# 28?..."C"? or would it be earlier?
