A Mark guy asks... Which Rectifier should I get??

Badlander 100

A multiwatt head is great. Or you can pay stupid prices for one from the 90s or the reissue.

Badlander 100

I agree with this suggestion. I have a MV90 and a Badlander 50. The Badlander covers the Marshall hair and bite and does the British thing that’s the one thing the Mark doesn’t cover too well.

Playing both in stereo is glorious.

FWIW I do have Badlander 50... amazing, underrated amp. Currently my #1 choice for the live rig. Indeed it does the Marshall / Brit and classic hard rock thing really well and is so dang easy to dial in. But it's Mesa's "New Take on the Rectifier" a much tighter bottom end then a traditional Rect.
