Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier Price Paid / Price New: $1499/$1499 Year Manufactured: 2001 Specs: (Taken from Mesa/Boogie's Website) http://www.mesaboogie.com/Product_Info/Rectifier_Series/Triple_Rectifier/triple_rectifier.html
Sound: 5/5 Chances are, if you've heard a guitar on the radio, you've probably heard the Mesa/Boogie sound. This amp is one mean SOB. If you like gain, this is definitely your piece of equipment. Even the clean channel has that mean sound to it. Very crunchy, bass is thick, and it's got plenty of midrange to go around. Equipment Quality: 5/5 For a tube amp, this thing is built like a tank. Bonus points for the diamond plating on the front. My cabinet tipped over during a gig one time and it fell to the ground. I picked it up, dusted it off, and looked in the back to see the damage. Not even a tube was broken. I made sure they were all seated firmly and it's still playing great 3 years later. Usefulness: 4/5 Between the 3 channels I can pretty much get any sound I want; from crystal-bell clean to telephone mids to pure chunk. It's so loud that most club gigs don't even need to mic it, and that's with it turned up to about 30%. Any more than that and it's just too much! Overall Value: 4/5 I think if you're playing hard rock, this will be a great amp for you. Combine it with your effects and a really good guitar (I use a Gibson Les Paul Custom '57 Reissue) and you have many years of rocking out ahead of you.
