Hard to get all of this into one picture :wink:

which heads are running into which cabs

recto-2x12"
MKIV-Theile
MkIII-Open back
thats what I would run
or a combination of heads into the cabs

ohh is that MKIII by the way

 

[Coeur de Blues]

It's not my main guitar, but I show you my main amps.

 

[ToneAddictJon]

It is a Mark III in the middle, I love it but it is probably gonna go bye-bye (Too much good tone!!!). Right now I'm running the Mark IV into the Thiele and 2x12 the Recto into the 2x12 and Rocktron 1x12 the Mark III into the open back. But this could all change within seconds 8)

BTW for those of you who haven't had the chance to run a Mark IV and Recto together..... It's the biggest, smoothest, hardest, filthiest sound you could ever wish for :wink:

Nice setup, how do you like the rocktron velocity power amp? been thinking of getting one to run my Mark IV in stereo

Nice rig. Who makes the vertical slant 2x12?

 

[Guitarzan]

Cool rig!

Nice cab selection. Cool rig...

 

[ToneAddictJon]

Thanks, but it's not gonna be permanent. Just testing as much stuff as I can afford to see what I'm gonna keep. Right now the Mark IV and the DR are staying (as well as all the cabs :lol: ) but the Mark III is going up on CL. I just can't justify having 3 heads, especially when it's gonna be one main rig and a backup rig. I might get rid of the open back as well, but we'll see what happens after the Mark III is gone.

 

[Russ]

I think I would only toss the Rocktron after the III leaves.

 

[ToneAddictJon]

Surprisingly, the rocktron sounds really good (especially for $140 new) and the low price also kills the resale, where I could get more for the open back mesa that doesn't have the punch of the ported rocktron. If I can though I'll keep them all

 

[Russ]

Your open back and Thiele basically give you the sounds of the old metal grille halfback 2x12. Those cabinets rock. The sealed 2x12 will give you punch. Sometimes it is nice to play a simple openback. That is why I was saying maybe dump the Rocktron. Plus your rig will be all Mesa.

Surprisingly, the rocktron sounds really good

Why surprisingly ?
Everything from ADA is really good.
I had MP2 and MP-1 666 modded and a microtube 100 power amp.
Awsome stuff.Sold them to build my today's rig = triaxis+gmajor+2.90 :wink:

 

[ToneAddictJon]

Very true Russ, I think I might have to now I do love the sound of all 3 of those Mesa cabs together. And I meant surprisingly because of the price of the Rocktron, I've used rocktron and ADA stuff before and loved it, but for a cab that cheap, who would of thought.....

 

[Coeur de Blues]

The velocity make very good job, it is only a power amp, the tone come from tube amp (Mesa or Bogner), so very good sound.

The 2x12 cab is a standard 4x12 Marshall 1960A cut in two by a carpenter, very good solution and good sound and it takes little space.
