Whats the consensus on these amps? Mesa content

[Elric]

I am in need of a 100w 6L6 amp.

But, it's not a 100W amp, it says 50W right on the amp... That said, jump on it. IMHO.

The Orange in the MX-5 sucks too!

This is me dialing in ANY orange amp

 

[paisleywookiee]

Orange amps kick ass.

As for the OP, I'd hold for a Series II ROV50.

Good to know. I take your advice very seriously. Is this a series II?

DOH LOL it says it right in the pic!

Haha! Ooopppssss.....

Future reference 1 Mesa Rectifier = 50 watts.

Single Rec is 50 watts
Dual Rec is 100 watts
Triple Rec is 150 watts.

Thanks. I have very little experience with them. I had a Tremoverb once upon a time and hated it.

Series II has Raw on channel 2, and can take EL34’s.

Cool yes I just saw that in @GuitarJon Single Rec video he made.

I wish the Single Rec had a bigger output transformer. It's a little light on the lows by itself.

I still have one.

I had this and sold it before I moved X-Country

Tremoverb is the only other recto I’d have interest in aside from my roadster really


Besides a badlander of course

I played through a Badlander extensively and it's the best Mesa amp I have ever played through. I just can't justify in my own head what it takes to get one. Plus reading around about the problems they have I'd want to buy new.

I was watching recent live performances of Incubus the other day and I see Mike is still rocking a
few Trem-O-Verb 2 x 12 Combos on stage.

I love incubus and he’s always had amazing tone

Yes , Mesa cabs are no joke
I had a buddy with the matching armour 412 OMG there a great idea
Hey Randall you know we have one of the heaviest cabs in the industry
You know what we should do ?
Attach 2 steel armour plates on the sides
