YOU SEE CORROSIVE MATTER, OFFICIAL AMPS CAN ONLY BE SANCTIONED BY THE TRIBUNAL COUNCIL OF TGF WHO IN TURN HAS TO VALIDATE SAID REQUEST FOR OFFICIAL CAPACITY AT THE BI-ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ELDERS IN WHICH THEY CAN ARGUE THE MERITORIOUS ADDITION OF SAID AMPLIFICATION PRODUCTS.

There is a serious lack of bubinga and wicker up in this thread...

This is an oddball pairing. Mesa Boogie Quad, which is a Mark IIC or IIC+ channel and a Mark III channel going into Stereo Rectifier 2:100 power amp, which is like a double Dual Rectifier power section.

Planning to add a Rectifier Recording to the setup just so that I can activate "tight" mode on the power and see how the Quad sounds through that.

Mark III FTW.

The VII sounds pretty badass in this video.

Yeah Blake is one of the guys that @MirrorProfiles threw my way when we were talking Recto's and Mark's. That is a good video. I wouldn't say the VII sounds hugely different to the V. They're both great amps! I think I'd rather either of them than the IV, or III, or IIC+.

The V is definitely more flexible than any of the versions that came before it.

I might have asked this before, but which version is that?

The openness is unmatched on the III. IMO the III was the realization of what Mesa couldn’t quite do with the IIC+. My III can get mental patient unhinged.

1985 Black dot/no stripe, simulclass, reverb, GEQ, 105 power transformer, EVM12L (when it’s in the combo)

Don't make me want a VII too damnit!

I was worried a bit when I was gassing for it but when you get a chance to play with it it's not too bad. Just knowing it can cover so much ground is amazing IMHO.

So you have a III with the 105 transformer, and a revision G Recto with the mark III transformer.

I need to start playing whatever Mesa lottery numbers you’ve been playing.
