Getting out of the rack business. I'll even toss in the 6U rack it's mounted in.

Dual, Triple, RK, Tremoverb....I don't care, as long as it's a head. Hell, I'd even consider cash and/or a Single Recto if I don't get any other offers.
 
Man,thats gonna be a killer deal for whoever has a head to trade. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I already didnt do my rack thing as well....I traded a Triaxes/295 amp in a 14 space boogie shock rack for a D.R. half stack 5 yr's ago and hell,as we trade all the time,I dont even have that head or cab anymore.
If you dont get a deal done in one day I'd be suprized. I know a guy in the Toronto area that might have people interested in your deal if it doesnt trade in here...keep me informed.

I'm travelling down to TO on Monday to sell off a bunch of gear.....quite possibly including this amp. If he's interested in trading or buying, let me know. I'll give him first dibs as I'd rather not have to ship this f*cker if I can avoid it, and I'd rather trade face to face than hope like hell that the other guy actually sends me an amp.
 
Tuner and power conditioner not included.....

He's a Soldano SLO nut right now...so I know he's not interested but he's got more feelers out in different forums and knows a ton of people that I'm sure he'd be able to hook you up. But like I said, wait till tonight and "I BET" you have a done deal. What else are you selling ? I just went to your web site and checked out your pics...damn,that recto racksetup looks sweet.

Basically....

70s Big Muff Pi
DigiDelay
DD-3
CE-2 (MIJ)
BF-2
Fender Blender
CE-20
DD-20
Proco Rat (with the LM308 chip)
Pedal Power 2
Lexicon MPX-100
Peavey TG Raxx Preamp
Furman PB-40 patch bay

And I was going to see if I could squeeze a Dual Recto out of the dealer as a strait up trade for the rack.

I'd ebay this stuff, but I kinda have to turn a quick buck this time.

lmao......as I was looking at your site..you snuck in pics here...your quick man !

There's some more stuff here;

.....including what I'm actually using right now (rig----). The stuff that's in the subfolders are pics that I've posted for buyers. The WH-1 arrived DOA and now I need to refund the buyer.....hence the reason I'm looking to turn a quick buck.
 
Just looked at your updated pics...thats cool you got a MKIII with the #2 master mod....makes a big differance to be able to control the vol on ch.2. I had a III in umbinga w/ matching ext. cab and I got to say,that was one of the most toneful amps I have owned.
 
It's a big part of the reason I'm selling the rack. I'd rather A/B a MkIII and a Recto than run two channels of Recto.....but I'm not dragging a rack around if I'm only going to use one channel off it.

The Recto still wins when it comes to full on brutality, but the MkIII is by far more toneful. When I first got it I spent about 15 minutes doing a blues **** on my Strat's neck single....it was so smooth sounding I forgot I was on the lead channel until I changed channels and it was suddenly clean. That was the moment I knew I was in love.
 
After much internal debate, I've decided to focus on getting a Triple Recto.

I want the tighter rhythm tone of a Triple, and I've run out of headroom on the Duals a couple of times when dropping big riffs, which wasn't that cool. Plus, I'm no longer worried about saturation since I'd rather use the MkIII for leads anyway.
