The Official TGF Mesa Rectifier Appreciation Thread.

Modern is where it's at for me - just dripping with that iconic Recto sizzle & lowend grunt.

Modern should be called moist. Because it makes me moist.

Am I crazy or does the reissue sound the best of these?

Today I spent a good amount of time with the clean channel. I gather that with the Single Rectifier Mesa was able to overhaul the clean channel on the Rec series and then further models also had better cleans. I have nothing bad to say whatsoever about the clean channel on the single rectifier - it’s warm and fat and chimy. Perfect for edge of breakup and bluesy tones imo.

I’ve said it many times, but the recto really is a generational amp to me in the way that I imagine the Plexi was to others.
