Empty Rectifier Straight Cab - What to Do?

[Third Age Amps]

Should I purchase new Mesa V30's for it, or should I just buy a used cab that already has speakers? The Mesa V30's are hard to find anywhere other than Mesa's site.

Thanks!

I'd say try a mix of Mesa spec'd V30's and C90's, those mix of 2 speakers bring out the best of a Recto.

I just snagged an empty Recto cab myself a few weeks ago and loaded it with this mix to go along with the slant/straight I have.

Did you buy them straight from Mesa?

If it were me, I would get the British made V30s for $129 from Mesa, rather than the Chinese V30s for $145 from Sweetwater :idea:

I snagged them off a forum member here.

I would buy them from the Mesa store on the Mesa website. You will need the 8 ohm version for a 412 cab. You can also get the MC90 there too if you opt to go that route. My preference is the full set to be V30.

Warehouse Guitar Speakers. They demo this with a Dual Recto.
